Words of Inspiration

LIVING WITH COURAGE : Compare Your life span to lighting a candle. If your life is being controlled by your fears, you are most certainly cheating yourself. Courage is the mental muscle that conquers fear. Like all muscles, the more you use them the stronger they become. Courage is not something you are born with, it must be developed. A little courage leads to more. Individuals who fail to develop courage, remain confined in mental prisons and face each day as mental lightweights. Learn to live the way you like by no longer living as you dislike. Forge into the remainder of your day with an abundance of courage. That's living!
