Thanks for this, Andrew, I particularly liked the part about walking the dog, to which I can relate, from now on I'll think of it as part of a cosmic process!

Thanks Victor. Sometimes the fast thoughts that pour out are more useful than the ones I pore over.

Let's keep walking in love. Where there is rebellion, where we believe in an end and we are not afraid of fear, courage arises.

Underline the importance of strength and courage and how courage can give us enough power to start something new. It is heard that the brave, those who take risks, those who risk it and bet on a different life, on creating new circumstances whose construction is expected to be difficult, even impossible, are "crazy". But courage has nothing to do with madness. Probably courage more than the absence of fear is the awareness that there is something worth risking for.

Courage is strength at the service of love and consciousness. Courage moves us because we believe that what we want to create, change, build makes sense.

of our fears,

our courage is born

and in our doubts,

live our certainties.

dreams announce

another possible reality

and delusions another reason.

in the wanderings,

finds await us

because you have to get lost

to meet again.

- Eduardo Galeano
