Lunch Box Wisdom 17 Nov 2015...  

"You wake up every morning to fight the same demons that left you so tired the day before, and that my love, is bravery."

Today's note is awesome! It is about Bravery. An often over used word and one that is applied to so many thing incorrectly. It is an inspiring word that can change the hopeless into the hopeful, the beaten into heroes, and the scared young boy into a courageous young man.

We are not just talking about the huge acts that change a world. We are talking about the simple small acts that propel you towards greatness. Sure slaying the dragon is brave, taking the first step onto a the Moon is surely brave too, and every soldier who stands as the shield of freedom is brave as well.  But what about child sleeping alone in the dark? What about the woman raising two children alone with only a part time job to provide for them? What about the working man who puts in 60 hours a week only to go on to his night job too so he can afford a home for his family? or the simple act of a teenager walking away from the drugs in her school and the one boy who says he loves her if she will just send him some pictures on her phone, so she can finish her home work? aren't those folks showing Bravery too?  I think so.

I was told once that having a Teddy bear was silly... I think a Teddy bear is like a covert wing man. Your buddy in the fox whole, the biker on your right in the turn.  He's got your 6 when you need some rack time.  No body wants to mess with the T-Bear !

We all need a wing man. Some on you can count on when things get really messy. That is the person that tells you to take one more step, to push just a little more and to help you stand back up when we fall. And one of the best ways to have some one like that is to be that person for some one else. Be the Teddy bear that watches while they sleep. The Goose to their Maverick, the Forrest for Bubba, or the Piglet for Pooh bear.  Be the one who dusts them off and says, " Man, that was awesome! Lets do it again!"

Some of my best friends became friends when all they needed was one person to stand with them...So I did.  And now, when I am on my last breath they come and lift me up so we can live to fight another day.

Today, I hope you will be Brave enough to help someone else become Brave... Change the world one life at a time. You can do it! I believe in you ;-)

Have a great day folks!
