What does it mean to be brave?
I've always heard it said differently.
It's the absence of fear; fear doesn't exist.
It's ignoring fear completely.
It's acting because of fear.
Well, I should tell you:
I'm always afraid of something.
They see me as cool and confident.
Like I don't have a care in the world.
Whenever I run, I leave my fears behind.
Sometimes, they catch up with me.
You're not good enough.
You're not strong enough.
You can't run forever.
Why even try to run?
Tails gave me a dictionary definition he found lately.
Fortitude. It's a noun.
It means having courage in pain or adversity.
Trust me, I've had my share of pain.
But perhaps in future, they'll change.
"I'm trying to have courage, but all I feel is pain…"
