I believe courage is when somebody can stand up for themselves or especially for somebody else that is getting bullied or picked on. Courage is not just when your brave enough to go on a rollercoaster or go on an airplane if your afraid of heights, it's about having the guts to sometimes risk your own life to save somebody elses.
I believe the most courageous job is either a fire fighter or a police officer because fire fighters have to go into burning buildings and rescue civilians trapped inside the burnign buildings. Police officers have to chase down vehicles on a high speed chase, come face to face with somebody with another gun or chase down people robbing a store or bank etc...
To have courage means to be brave and have integrity and persaverance also having to do something you really don't want to do in some cases. To stand up, defend yourself from somebody harassing you or a friend whether they are bigger or smaller than you are. That is what courage means to me.
Hi Ryan,
ReplyDeleteThis is a strong piece of writing. Be sure to double check for homonyms which can cause trouble as in: "when your brave enough" when you actually mean "when you're brave enough."
Most of this entry is very clear and detailed. I also think you do well with structure. Having divided your work into paragraphs makes it very reader friendly.
