True courage (inspired by Writer's Island)

When it comes to fear
I choose fight over flight
But to replace fear with anger
Somehow doesn’t feel right
This technique really sucks
And has little to do
With the spirit and heart
Of courage that is true
True courage is able
To stay with the fear
Looks at it closely
Even holds it dear
Watches it patiently
With awareness that is pure
That it will eventually dissolve
True courage knows for sure

  2. I agree, true courage holds the fear, sees it clearly, and acts despite all of that. Nicely done,
