I just watched the award winning movie - [The Blind Side]. It's an enlightening, meaningful film about USA NFL legend Michael Oher. There is a part that i think i must share here and hopefully you can get a copy of the film.

Courage is a hard thing to figure. You can have courage based
on a dumb idea or mistake,
but you're not supposed
to question adults, or your coach
or your teacher. because they make the rules. Maybe they know best. but maybe they don't. It all depends on who you are,
where you come from. Didn't at least one of the six hundred
guys think about giving up. and joining with the other side? I mean, Valley of Death
that's pretty salty stuff.
That's why courage it's tricky. Should you always do
what others tell you to do? Sometimes you might not even know
why you're doing something.
I mean any fool can have courage. But honor, that's the real reason
you either do something or you don't. It's who you are and maybe
who you want to be. If you die trying for
something important. then you have both
honor and courage. and that's pretty good.
I think that's what the writer
was saying. That you should hope for courage
and try for honor. And maybe even pray that the people
telling you what to do have some, too.
