Courage...

Courage
Courage you know is a spark from heaven
it fills you with the faith to act and gives you
the dynamic-power-to-perform and to go ahead
man does not know how good he is until he begins
to use his courage...courage is that quality that
enables you to encounter any situation with firmness
it makes you daring and bold it fills you with valor
and the dauntless spirit to conquer all adversities
overcome all obstacles surmount all conditions
solve all problems hurdle all hindrances and
make you the master of your affairs.
Courage Has Genius. Power and Majesty in It!



Invictus
Out Of The Night That Covers Me
Black As A Pit From Pole To Pole,
I Thank Whatever Gods There Be
For My Unconquerable Soul.

In The Fell Clutch Of Circumstance
I Have Not Winced Or Cried Aloud;
Under The Bludgeoning Of Chance
My Head Is Bloody But Unbowed.

Beyond This Vale Of Doubt And Fear
Looms But The Terror Of The Shade
And, Yet, The Passing Of The Years
Finds, And Shall Find Me, Unafraid.

It Matters Not How Straight The Gate
How Charged With Punishments The Scroll
I Am The Master Of My Fate,
I Am The Captain Of My Soul.


  

Invictus -- The name of the poem, Invictus, means Undefeated, in Latin. It was written in the 19th century
