Courage

Going through obstacles of all sorts. Not even holding that famous torch. People do it everyday. From standing up to a bully at school, or even saving a child from a pool. Courage comes in many different shapes, colors, and size. This word shows no discrimination when it comes to mind. Courage is my great- grandmother. I love her and she cannot be compared to any other. She taught to hold on and grit my teeth to the end. Also, not be selfish to family or friends. I hold these things and many others I hold dear. Even though my great- grandmother has since left this earth I know she’s near. Watching me and praying that I keep holding strong. God is with me and I’m not alone. Keep on going, that’s what she would say to me, and by God you will have the victory.
