Slide 1: Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I'll try again tomorrow. ~Mary Anne Radmacher Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear. ~Ambrose Redmoon Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen. ~Winston Churchill "One man with courage makes a majority." — Andrew Jackson, early 19th-century American military hero and U.S. president You can't test courage cautiously. ~Anne Dillard "Life is a compromise of what your ego wants to do, what experience tells you to do, and what courage lets you do." — Bruce Crampton

Slide 13: Poem “Courage”
by Anne Sexton
Slide 14: It is in the small things we see it.The child's first step, as awesome as
an earthquake.
Slide 15: The first time you rode a bike, wallowing up the sidewalk.
Slide 16: The first spanking when your heartwent on a journey all alone.
Slide 17: When they called you crybabyor poor or fatty or crazyand made you into an alien, you drank their acidand concealed it.
Slide 18: Later, if you faced the death of bombs and bulletsyou did not do it with a banner, you did it with only a hat tocover your heart.
Slide 19: You did not fondle the weakness inside youthough it was there.Your courage was a small coalthat you kept swallowing.
Slide 20: If your buddy saved youand died himself in so doing, then his courage was not courage, it was love; love as simple as shaving soap.
Slide 21: Later, if you have endured a great despair, then you did it alone,
Slide 22: getting a transfusion from the fire, picking the scabs off your heart, then wringing it out like a sock.
Slide 23: Next, my kinsman, you powdered your sorrow, you gave it a back ruband then you covered it with a blanket
Slide 24: and after it had slept a whileit woke to the wings of the rosesand was transformed
Slide 25: Later, when you face old age and its natural conclusionyour courage will still be shown in the little ways,
Slide 26: each spring will be a sword you'll sharpen, those you love will live in a fever of love,
Slide 27: and you'll bargain with the calendarand at the last momentwhen death opens the back dooryou'll put on your carpet slippersand stride out.
