You can have courage based on a dumb idea... or a mistake.
But, you're not supposed to question adults, .. or your coach, .. or your teacher.
Maybe they know the 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 hundreds guys thinking about giving up and joining with the other side?
I mean, Valley of Death, .. that's pretty salty stuff.
That's why courage is tricky.
Should you always do what others tell you to do?
Sometimes,... you might not even know why you do 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...
From Me :
I quote this from The Blind Side movie. The Valley of Death is a poem that tells us about the death of 600 people because of the leader's fault. What amazed me is how he try to define courage, ... and also honor.
I often ask myself, Why i doing this? For what? For me? For somebody else?
Or, why i don't have any courage to do something? where is that courage? I need IT! NOW.
but, i realize.. when i found something really worth fighting for, for me, not for the others sake, i felt that i got the courage and also the honor. And that feeling still exists till now, maybe..will last forever.
Then, i see that all i things i do depends on me, who i am.
Maybe i'll have doubts.
Maybe one time, i will stop and tired.
But, who knows what will happen in future?
all i know is, ... it's all worthed to fight for.
