The Capacity of Our Courage.

My father used to say that we are empowered by our choices; that no man is without the benefit of courage.

Yet, all too often, we feel courage to be beyond our means. We stretch, we reach – hoping to elicit the strength of its external form.

And when we fear, we assume it’s gone; a weakness of character and a faltering of heart. Though nothing could be further from the truth. For courage builds only when our fortitude is tested.

Courage is that silence force beckoning us to begin; leading to that next adventure, from one moment to the next. It can be powerfully strong, lending its roar. Or a graceful knowing strength, steadfast in its approach to glory.

Just like the sun, it shines on and on; it is the movement within the clouds and the calm before the storm.

We may feel vulnerable, of course…but we shall always grow.

In peace…

Namaste ❤️
