Motivational Power Quote

 

Personal Courage  

"There is often in people to whom ‘the worst'

has happened an almost transcendent freedom,

for they faces ‘the worst' and survived it ."

Carol Pearson, author   

    

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Personal Courage  

Personal courage is having the inner strength to weather the storms of life.   

There are times that our storms pass quickly and are soon forgotten. At other times the storms in our lives seem so overwhelming that we question our abilities and ourselves as to if there will be anyway to survive the storm.    

In the dark times in our lives we have to have the personal courage to weather the storms that we face. We have to stand our ground to step up and do the best we can in the conditions that we find ourselves in.   

We may become battered in withstanding the storms of life but as we come out of the other side we emerge a better and stronger person.   

In our persistence's we overcome our adversities and grow stronger.  

The storms may bend us but we won't break. We may get knocked down but we will get back and dust ourselves off our and push forward.  

It takes the will to win and personal courage to withstand the storms of life to achieve greater things.

It is a source of amazement that human beings have this capacity to  draw deeply and find  resouces to  face  adversity. There is, most certainly, pain involved, moments of feeling defeat, great sorrow, then  somehow finding  courage to let go of resistance, accept,  move forward with the heart of a lion - It is found in some many people - extraordinary attitudes .

Tonight I was listening to the interview of a man shot in the face in his conveneince store in 2001,now pleading for the life of the shooter. this happened right after 9/11. A disgruntled person came in, asked where he was from and shot him point bank range and killed two others. A Muslin, from Bangladesh, who was living the Americna dream, this person has suffered countless surgery, lost his eye sight, but at the time of the shooting, prayed to God that if he were spared, he would devote his life to the service of others.

Now, as the shooter faces lethal injection, his victim pleads for his life - with no hatred or animosity in his heart. This certainly takes courage to put faith and forgiveness into action.

Lou, personal courage and internal strength..we know about it only at a later date when someone has NOT succumed to the circumstances! WE know only about those who survived the storm as they can tell their stories. What about those who could not make it?
