Courage
Courage (also called bravery, bravado or valor) is the choice and willingness to confront agony, pain, danger, uncertainty or intimidation. Physical courage is courage in the face of physical pain, hardship, death or threat of death, while moral courage is the ability to act rightly in the face of popular opposition, shame, scandal, discouragement, or personal loss.
In some traditions, fortitude holds approximately the same meaning. In the Western tradition, notable thoughts on courage have come from philosophers Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas and Kierkegaard; in the Eastern tradition, some thoughts on courage were offered by the Tao Te Ching. More recently, courage has been explored by the discipline of psychology.
Theories of courage
Western antiquity and the Middle Ages
Ancient Greece
There is a tradition moving back to Ancient Greek philosophy for counting courage or fortitude as one of the four cardinal virtues, along with prudence, justice, and temperance. ("Cardinal" in this sense means "pivotal"; it is one of the four cardinal virtues because to possess any virtue, a person must be able to sustain it in the face of difficulty.)

Courage
by: Fort HopeSince I've been facing the wind
To claw back things I've lost in sin
The cold won't embraces me again
So I'll hold my breath and count to ten
What about us, about us forgetting
That it's all about us,
About us regretting
The song in our hearts
When our hearts need to sing
It's been months sing we stopped the rain
Oh how my anchors get me through these waves
Stay aligned it's time to be brave
Can the anchors hold me through this change?
Oh my god can you believe I'm here on my knees again
I can't breath or barely hear through the crackling flames
We exchange through the sparks caused by catalysts
Fuelled by the desire within
You can't stop this happening
Since I've been facing the wind
To claw back things I've lost in sin
The cold won't embrace me again
So I'll hold my breath and count to ten
What about us, about us forgetting
That it's all about us,
About us regretting
The song in our hearts
When our hearts need to sing
Because this is my life
It's my life I'm no liar
And now I'm on fire I'm on fire I'm on fire
I feel this unfamiliar melody
Oh my god can you believe I'm here on my knees again
I can't breath or barely hear through the crackling flames
We exchange through the sparks caused by catalysts
Fuelled by the desire within
You can't stop this happening
Since I've been facing the wind
To claw back things I've lost in sin
The cold won't embrace me again
So I hold my breath and count to ten
What about us about us forgetting
That it's all about us about us regretting
The song in our hearts
When our hearts need to sing
Don't you think
This is my life it's my life I'm no liar
Now I'm on fire I'm on fire I'm on fire
I feel this unfamiliar melody
What about us about us forgetting
That it's all about us about us regretting
The song in our hearts
When our hearts need to sing
Don't you think
This is my life it's my life I'm no liar
Now I'm on fire I'm on fire I'm on fire
I feel this unfamiliar melody
