It takes courage to forgive. It takes courage to release and let go. It takes courage to make sacrifices. It takes courage to embrace anything which society believes is not the norm. It takes courage to learn to drive. It takes courage to go back to school. It takes courage to raise your hand in class. It takes courage to tell someone you love them and mean it. It takes courage to believe that you are loved. It takes courage to ignore the frailties of the world. It takes courage to let others know that you read this blog. It takes to be yourself, which at times is the hardest to do. It takes courage to have a voice and use it. It takes courage to not give into fear. It takes courage to cut your loses and get on with your life. It takes courage to step through the front door.

It takes courage to admit your flaws or your faults. It takes courage to see your inner beauty and strength, looking beyond superficiality. It takes courage to stand up and speak out for another. It takes courage to attack life on behalf of others. It takes courage to be present in your life. It takes courage not to bend to pressure. It takes courage not to make the power of money ruin you.

It takes courage to be defiant in the face of adversity. It takes courage to remove the limitations placed on you because of your race, or ethnicity. It takes courage! It takes courage to own your freedom and explore all your possibilities. It takes courage to let go off your mothers hand. It takes courage to refuse time to non essential activities. It takes courage to stand up to a friend. It don’t mean you are weak if you turn the other cheek, walk away from trouble if you can the song says…It takes courage to walk away from a fight. It takes courage to stand up and speak. It takes courage to sit down and listen. It takes courage not to be a victim of anything. It takes courage to free your mind. It takes courage to step aside. It takes courage to trust. It takes courage to explore and accept things that you learn from the Bible or the Koran or your faith. It takes courage to change. It takes courage to accept change!

“The two hardest tests on the spiritual road are the patience to wait for the right moment and the courage not to be disappointed with what we encounter.”
― Paulo CoelhoVeronika Decides to Die

“Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.”
― Nelson Mandela

“Have courage for the great sorrows of life and patience for the small ones; and when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace. God is awake.”
― Victor Hugo

“Courage isn’t having the strength to go on – it is going on when you don’t have strength.”
― Napoleon

Ẹni tó bá ní tòún bàjẹ́, tó bá rí ti ẹlòmíì á yin Ọlọ́run lógo. /

It takes courage, as women, to unite. Men love their brotherhood. Guy code. Team mates. You name it, where 2 or more men are gathered, they become a united front- so effortlessly. As women, the same is not easily done for whatever reason or the other, but we need courage to unite. There’s spiritual power in the unity of women. The power of a woman. #WomenPower.

Yazzy, I was very upset at her…She wasnt being self-righteous or anything, but she would jokingly asked when I am getting married and told me that I needed a man in the house as I was more of a target for robbers when there is no man around the house. I had to think looooogggg and hard and realised she was deflecting. I realised it wasnt about ME (courage is not making things about you) and the amazing thing, I found this blog, got friends and a special niece, Brenda. God is good. I remind myself with the scripture that… Read more »

Courage is accepting that you were/are wrong: This recently happened to me. I have this co-worker, we are not pally-pally but we interact daily. She is a nice lady, she has even gotten a prize at work for being the most professional (standing ovation when her name was called). About last yr Oct. I was contstantly led to pray for her, specifically her marriage. I couldnt understand but I prayed. She was never a flashy lady, nice simple hairstyles etc. Then she just start to look ‘mash-up’ as we would say in Ja. Occaionally, when I enquired how things were… Read more »

Yuh continue pray fi har… when called to do a task, it’s ok fi fight, kick and scream before and even during the task… but as long as we have the courage to complete it… after the battle, the reward! Yuh have a big heart and it’s already taking you places

@ Ty, yes it’s true. Look around us… our culture of celeb obsession/worship, among other things ie, lovers of money, fame and ourselves (selfie obsession) . So courage is esp needed, as a young person, to embrace God and our spirituality in spite of what’s now “trending”.

Good day every one. These “writers” out there making the “best sellers” list have nothing on you. You don’t just write, you INSPIRE! You are Maya Angelo’s true definition of a phenomenal woman. You should be published. You’re raw literature can heal a nation.

Just what the soul needed. Obara my favourite quote is from Les Brown ‘if you fall, fall on your back, because if you can look up, you can get up’. It is courage that would make you get up.
