a forest of thoughts with pathways of grit bordered by the ageless unbending, yet graceful willow trees waving me on effortlessly with the wind of yesteryear I traverse the pathways crushing fear underfoot grittily determined to endure with grace as my companion and pockets full of pebbles slowly being ground into the gritty sands of time
grace
Courage Under Fire
an absence of fear the ability to suppress or maybe there are values of more import grace, valour, hope bear defeat never lose heart remain calm capture courage push on get up again and again consume whatever life throws your way let grace possess you remain calm, rational even under attack courage is grace under fire in spite of consequences you can only be a victim of yourself not others discipline your mind be tenacious, persevere hope always remains
