Courage and miscellaneous

Todays been a very great day for me. actually make that wonderfully great =D. I've been able to buy my DVDs and have lunch and an outing together with co-workers. Working our way into steamboats with seafood whilst enjoying the great atmosphere of steam and ambience. Things in my mind 1) korean dramas 2) Long nails, I'm sorta having now 3) Joblessness 4) Global crunch down 5) getting retrenced? 6) Bubblegum?

Lets see, Sandwich would be on a short hiatus as he is busy preparing for huge upcoming event if I am not mistaken, a party or a conference or a camp? So yeah =D. He'll be very buusy for this week but I can reassure you of his presence next week and the following week Insyallah ( gods will). I hope you guys won't miss him that much and on behalf on him I would like to apologize for his absence and while he is absent I would take the greatest opportunity to entertain you guys on behalf of him.

Todays topic that i would share shortly is........Courage

Courage is not defined by what we do, but what we overcome within ourselves. It involves acknowledging our fears but not being deterred from offering something that goes beyond our comfort zone. Courage fuels our motivation to act on something what we care about. It can be compelling, exhilarating and contagious. Not many of us will play a prominent role in national or global affairs, but each person can display courage by standing up for what they believe in, however difficult or unpopular.

Courage, also known as bravery, will, intrepidity, and fortitude, is the ability to confront fear, pain, risk/danger, uncertainty, or intimidation. "Physical courage" is courage in the face of physical pain, hardship, or threat of death, while "moral courage" is the ability to act rightly in the face of popular opposition, shame, scandal, or discouragement.

Aristotle:
Moral excellence comes about as a result of habit. We become just by doing just acts, temperate by doing temperate acts, brave by doing brave acts.

Baltasar Gracian:
Without courage, wisdom bears no fruit.

Bernadette Devlin:
Yesterday I dared to struggle. Today I dare to win.

Dorothy Thompson:
Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.

John Quincy Adams:
Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.

Maya Angelou:
History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again.

Robert Frost:
The best way out is always through.

Winston Churchill:
Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.

I actually planned on putting courage the cowardly dogs picture on the blog but later decided not to.
