But we can shoulder this burden collectively, and one thing that’s hit home for me over the past few months is that acts of courage surround us every day. I’ve witnessed them, I’m in awe of them and I’ve built up my own faith armour and courage because of them. For me, courage has become something much more meaningful and special than the feats and achievements we typically associate it with. It’s not just the wonder of climbing mountains or saving lives, it’s also being true to you— “living out loud”—even when you feel like you just don’t have the words. It’s taking the time to realise that we need to be kind to ourselves.
