Cowards are afraid of getting hurt. There’s a moment when you actually get hurt, and realise in retrospect why it’s called courage. To the noble, it’s just doing what you are automatically called to do; there is no real choice. Not acting on conscience would be the destruction of your identity and sense of selfhood. Going along to get along is akin to death; absorbed into the hive mind. Nothing to lose when compared to that baseline.

Not having been taught courage and having to learn the discipline from hand to hand combat with evil from a young age & losing too many times…even more than letters & numbers should courage be taught.

God’s version of love really is enough though. The rest of love’s siblings: courage, discernment, strength, charity, loyalty…they all will follow love into the depths of hell in efforts where duty is called.

Requires a deep reserve of compassion to withstand deficiencies in others & in oneself.
