It is something that lies within you,
Where you can draw upon its strength and power,

Courage is not something mysterious or unattainable,
It is something that you can exercise in your daily life choices,
You can let it bring to you untraveled paths,
And make you more conscious and aware of your...

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
