Fear and Courage
True Stories That Reveal the Depths of the Human Experience
We have all felt fear, whether it’s our racing heart as we make a speech or the profound awareness of our own mortality as we await medical results.
Of course, the flip-side of fear is courage, as Nelson Mandela famously said, ‘I learned that courage was not the absence of fear but the triumph over it.’
25 true stories capture the full range of the fear and courage experience in the second book of the ‘Timeless Wisdom’ Series. At times humorous, often poignant, these stories shine a light on just what it means to be human.
