There are people who put their dreams in a little box and say, "Yes, I've got dreams, of course I've got dreams.'" Then they put the box away and bring it out once in awhile to look in it, and yep, they're still there. These are great dreams, but they never even get out of the box. It takes an uncommon amount of guts to put your dreams on the line, to hold them up and say, "How good or how bad am I?" That's where courage comes in.

Ah, SeptemberMorn, the "dream" of courage. The only way to "work" on it is to exercise/use it. It's a muscle in your chest helping your Heart muscle.

You know? I'd never given much thought to the location of Courage, but you are so exactly right! A Heart without it is a weak Heart, that's for sure! It's been a while since I've exercised mine. I think it's time!

I took my dream out of the box a few months ago and used all of my courage to start my Avon business. I'm working hard but my dream isn't actually going any where yet and I'm feeling bad about it. I feel like this is my last chance to be a success.
Your post reminds me of the courage I used and how I must continue to use it on a daily basis.
