Courage is not absent fear. To acknowledge fear within ourselves and act in spite of it is an innate human demonstration of faith. We do not need to arrest fear to act. Fear is not yin; courage is not yang.
Fear often affects the character of human beings. We can choose to experience this as a ride with constant starts and stops or a continuous forward motion coaster. Fear halts us when we deny it exists or over emphasize it. Simple honesty with ourselves about what is true and false will sustain our momentum.
With this perspective, a simple review of past actions will show amazing human demonstrations of faith, or courage, in each life, providing fuel to continue the journey.
