Emory→ I grin, "Well, I like to do a lot of things. But I almost never get the chance to do them." I tell her, pushing the hair away from my face. "For instance, I like to read, and hang out with my friends, and sometimes I even like to watch movies that I want to watch." I kick a rock with the toe of my shoe. "But since blonde here," I say, tugging on Maries curls, "Follows me around everywhere, I hardly ever get to do those things." Marie has stopped to pick up a leaf that she thinks is interesting. She shows it to me and I take it. She smiles and starts walking again.

“Courage is not the absence of fear but the judgment that something else is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever but the cautious do not live at all. For now you are traveling the road between who you think you are and who you can be.❞

Bravery is one of the most important things to me. It has been for quite a long time now. I always believed that if people were not brave then nothing would be done to make the world the place that it is. Think about that for a nanosecond. Courage and bravery are what shaped the society. If people had not been brave enough to step out on a limb, then we would have no heroes. No police men. No firefighters. No soldiers. Nothing. We would be a world without hope. And when there is nothing to hope for then what is there? So be brave. Please, please, please, don't tuck yourself away in a dusty cob-webbed corner and sit on a three-legged stool staring out your window and fantasizing about the things you could do. Do them. Be courageous, be bold, be brave.
