My fiancee and I were talking about courage last night. This morning I came across the following quote from Laurence Shames:

Why are we inspired by another person's courage?
Maybe because it gives us the sweet and genuine surprise of discovering
some trace, at least, of the same courage in ourselves.

Interesting. I think he may be on to something. I know personally it's inspiring and sometimes quite humbling, to see friends and loved ones face situations that I find terrifying. Yet, they manage to stand tall and face the storm.

Here's to you. Thank you for standing tall and in doing so, inspiring me to do the same.
