Right. I wish i was courageous too.

u/Superb_Wrangler201 Jul 02 '26

I like to remember that courage is the one attribute whereby faking it is the real thing. Putting on a strong front when youre actually afraid is the act of courage

Hey, I’m going by through some personal stuff right now and just want to let you know your comment helped me feel a little better.

Bravery is not never being afraid, it is being afraid and doing it anyway. I hope things get better for you soon.

I tell my kids, "you can't be brave if you aren't scared"
