I look at bravery as doing something that is beyond ones normal capability & out of the norm for the person. Doing something beyond ones comfort zone but force ones self to do whatever it is anyway. Different for different people. What is brave for one may just be a normal part of another's life.

True bravery to me is a soldier who has been injured hanging in there to help the rest of their group to escape a bad situation or even one that gets killed saving another's life.

Or the lady that was driving behind my H's car when he rolled the car & our daughter was thrown out of the car on the freeway & the lady stopped & picked up our daughter until the paramedics got there.

Or a woman who escapes an abusive marriage & restarts life all over again....like "sleeping with the Enemy" movie.

Honestly I think for some, just getting through their day can be considered brave.
