bravery is not the absence of fear
The self evaluation madness continues. I know I have talked much about fear, etc, but it not the fear we all identify with, it’s a different breed of fear. Maybe The Apprentice and Mr B2B and The Emrys can identify, plus most of you anyways.
So.
Two profound things I’ve read on bravery and courage, one I read today, the other I read a couple of years back.
Bravery is not the absence of fear, but the will to overcome it.
- John BerridgeCourage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.

Wama Rogue, these are nice quotes. Seen them somewhere before. Although it takes more than reading them, one must consume them philosophically.

spot on, fear is a part of us, prolly even helps to define a part of who we are, but its what we do with/to that fear that really counts at the end
i keep confusing you with the emry’s…thats y i be not coming, oba y… maybe you are the same ish… anyhoo… i like that quotes on fear… my best is the biblical one… ‘we have not been given a spirit of fear but of power, love and a sound mind’

@Rogue Dude, why are you letting all these peeps know that Emry’s B2B and I are major cowards? lol
Fear, fear and more fear. Disturbing in how many forms it manifests in every area of our lives. A constant battle. Perhaps its the second worst thing about the fall of man. It’s great to know God has given us a spirit of love, power and sound mind.
@Miss Cheri F.E.A.R is an evil world wide organisation set out to destroy us all. Their leader is notoriously known as Number 1. Rogue, tell her.
I like the quotes….I can see where you are going with this one.
