what do you take a stand for?

[Guest guest]

In our lives, we have two or three opportunities to be a hero, but

almost every day, we have the opportunity not to be a coward.

- Spanish proverb

What do you take a stand for?

Courage comes in many forms. In Hollywood, courage involves

evildoers and daring deeds. In real life, rescue workers, police, and

the military have the courage to lie their lives on the line for

someone else or a cause. Even for those of us who live life on a much

smaller stage, courage is no less important. The world and the future

can be scary. Fear of failure, fear of change, and fear of taking a

chance can be enough to keep us in bed all day if we let them. Do you

live bravely or do you often look for the easy way out? Next time

you're faced with two choices, choose the bolder. As this becomes

more natural, you can be sure that you'll do the right thing when

called upon. Stand up for your values. Stand up for your goals.

Stand.
