  • What’s the difference between being brave and being a coward? A brave always looks for an opportunity no matter how hard the situation but a coward avoids all problematic situations.

  • Bravery is not just about the absence of fear, and we don’t need to disregard our safety and engage in violence to show we are brave. That’s stupidity, not bravery. Bravery is also about the realization that there is something more important than fear.

  • It takes zero courage to tell people what they want to hear, and many people only act friendly and pleasant to your face. Don’t be that way.Only a coward lies behind lies and deceit. You’re a coward if you choose self-protection over doing the right thing. So, be brave and dignified, stand up for yourself, and be honest, even when the truth is painful.

But that’s just my take. Comment and share yours
