Brave is the person who keeps their mouth shut when the so called bold insults them. Brave is the silent leader. But timid am I? For I am none of these things. I shy from the ones I love, and I am most certainly not silent. But yet I seem outwardly brave, It must work itself inside. Wholeheartedly Brave is the one who does not admit it or boast about it, but when called to action, delivers.

I think what inspired me to write this article was that I was faced with some problems that required me to own who I was and be brave so I wrote this.
