Courage is what The Cowardly Lion in the movie Wizard of Oz is what I'm like. Going out daily like a courageous, ferocious, always winning, and graceful lion when you feel like a shy sheep inside. Isn't life that way though we don't like to admit it?

I think that life can be so much better if there was nothing to be courageous about. Imagine if we all were richer with more money we need and can keep it safe forever, we never have to be courageous! Think of it, we'd all be rich now, not just me so, you'll never have to be courageous to defend and keep it safe, because we never are going to fight over it we're all rich! This is not the world today though. You got average people just barely making ends meet being courageous defending their earnings safe, from credit card thieves and other bad people and it isn't for much that we are being courageous for, but must be courageous to protect, our earnings! If we don't be courageous to protect our earnings who else is going to protect our earnings? So we sheep must be like lions and be courageous!

Life can be so much nicer if we all had a mate there waiting for us and loving us unconditionally and hope that no one tries to take that wonderful husband from you. We the weaker gender, must be courageous and fight for our husband or husband to be or he'll be taken from us. Though we are the gentler gender, we must be courageous and fight for our love or what might happen if we don't? Again, like The Cowardly Lion, we must go forth in this world and be courageous and keep our love safe by our side.

Courage to live when our hearts have felt the loss of a dear loved one, and life demands we live up to our responsibility when all we want to do is cry for that loved one that has left us and went to heaven. All the time we are put to the test to carry on with little shoulders and overwhelming emotions of the loss that has happened and we must be courageous though our heart aches with pain and grief of someone that we'll never see again. Courage and live on!

Even if a beloved pet passes on we must be courageous and lift our heavy hearts and live on without our best friend that never talked back nor complained. Gone are they from sight and heart forever and we must live on without their companionship forever. Though we are missing them we must go onward and live on without the best friend you'd ever have with courage and pain in our hearts.

As life goes on we are deemed to best have courage for all the things that might happen. Though we be like sheep in our hearts we must be like the Cowardly Lion in the Wizard of Oz and face life as best we can and with courage.
