Deep within thyself courage lies. Sleeping, and only when a true moment of disaster and atrocity rears its face, does your courage surface and drive you to action. Courage is percieving a reality and taking action to realize what you yourself can and will do. Only does facing up to peril, doubt, and fear truly unravel your own true valor.

I live by this quote.  Life is about making your own path that leads to your personal happiness, not following the same path everyone else treads that only leads to a mediocre sense of contentment.
