Today I’ve been thinking about what it means to be brave. I have so many brave people that surround me on a daily basis. I’m sure there are a million more things that I could add to this list, but you get the idea. I’m proud of the people in my life. They make me realize how good life is even though it can really kick our butts sometime.
Brave: possessing or exhibiting courage or courageous endurance.
