Courageous Courage

Story of a kid:

A kid, who is very reluctant, is forcefully sent to school. To him, home is the only secure place and parents are the only acquaintances. Everything else is strange and new. Out of the fear of unknown, he refuses to go to school. But, his parents know that the school is a secure place too and also that the kid needs to be educated. Though he never likes the idea of doing something different from his routine of staying n playing at home, he has to attend the classes everyday because of his parents' persuasion. Within few days, he gets used to it. Once he makes friends with the other kids, he doesn't want to miss the school even for one day. With lot of curiosity, he learns something new each day from his teachers, friends and books. By the time he finishes his class 10, he is not only fond of but also reluctant to leave the school. Its time for him to enter the not-so-welcoming place, called junior college, with goals set as high as sky. There the competition is huge, books are heavier and subjects are vast. Again, 'the fear of unknown' steps in. And the story goes on.

This fear of unknown walks in and out of his life too often. It doesn't make him a coward, rather it makes him stronger and wiser each day. It introduces him to 'Courage'. This keeps him going in tough times. It shows him the only way out of many dead-ends. It helps him not only in succeeding but also in standing up against the failures that pop-up out of nowhere. It expands his world. It gives him a lot of new experiences. It helps him to rediscover himself. In the end, it keeps him happy and contented.
