In honor . . .

To honor the passing of the incredible Nelson Mandela, I will use one of his quotes today.
It is one of my favorites and something I believe in strongly.

I learned that courage was not the absence of fear,
but the triumph over it.
The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid,
but he who conquers that fear.

In fact, I was speaking with a good friend last night who sent me a great little snippet that I will also add to this:

Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.

Today, as Mandela lived every day, let us seek and practice peace.

I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
