[b]Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can't practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage. Maya Angelou[/b] We all have courage on the SSC. We have the courage to admit we were / are addicts and we had the courage to stop smoking. We also have the courage to reach out and help those who are struggling in their quits. The greatest gift we can give to others, is to let them know they have courage too. [b]cour?age �noun 1. the quality of mind or spirit that enables a person to face difficulty, danger, pain, etc., without fear; bravery.[/b] [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 9/21/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 65 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 653 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $130 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 5 [B]Hrs:[/B] 18 [B]Mins:[/B] 13 [B]Seconds:[/B] 4

so very true Duckie! The only courage that really counts is the courage that gets you from one difficult moment to the next. Don't ever give up! You may be only a moment away from your goal.

My dad used to say that I would argue with a fence post. Well, here I'm going to correct the dictionary! The facing difficulty without fear part...I think courage is facing difficulty even WITH fear. Great post, Duckie!
