First Post - Courage

Courage is the mental strength to overcome your fears and take the initiative.
When I was in first grade, I was able to ride a four wheeled bike, but was afraid to ride the two wheeled bike. There was already a two wheeled bike at our house, but I was afraid that I might fall off while riding it. Looking at the bike, I decided to try it. It wasn't too bad when my dad was holding the bike, but when I fell off, I wanted to stop. The bike was looking at me as if it was saying "Please don't give off, try one more time," listening to the advice, I got on the bike. This time I rode without the help of my dad. It didn't go well on the first day, but the second day was different. As the days went I got better and better and soon I wasn't afraid of falling off the bike.
I'm not sure, but I think this is an example of courage.

I enjoyed reading your post. I can really relate to your story on courage. I, too, remember transitioning from a bike with training wheels to one without and all the skinned knees that went with that transition.
