Moving Forward



courage does not always roar.

sometimes courage is the quiet voice

at the end of the day saying.

“I will try again tomorrow”


(mary anne radanbacher)



Often when we think of courage, we imagine strong, powerful people doing incredibly courageous things; David against Goliath, Firemen, Policemen, Soldiers, Capt Sully, civil rights activists, children and adults battling terminal disease… all true. Yet, courage also comes in our decision to live after we’ve come close to stepping off the precipice.
Courage comes in the quiet determination of a single parent struggling to keep the home intact and children fed. It comes in our willingness to step outside our comfort zone... and press on. Courage is the tiny ant in our kitchen sink, carrying crumbs and slowly making its way home… Courage helps us up after we’ve taken a fall. Courage gets us out of bed. Courage helps us recognize that no matter what, we don’t need to lose our head as grace will carry us ahead. ~ Elizabeth Mirth & Motivation


May you always find the courage to move forward.
