"The word courage comes from the same stem as the French word Coeur, meaning "heart." Thus just as one's heart, by pumping blood to one's arms, legs, and brain enables all the other physical organs to function, so courage makes possible all the psychological virtues. Without courage other values wither away into mere facsimiles of virtue."

~ Rollo May, 20th Century Existential Psychologist from “The Courage to Create”

Remember: Courage is like our heart: It pumps blood and energy to all our virtues.

So…

How’s your heartbeat?

 



[ btw: Rollo May rocks. If you haven’t read “The Courage to Create,” I HIGHLY recommend it. ]
