I’ve learned that courage is the ability to do something that frightens you,
or the ability to face pain or grief with strong determination. Because of
courage I now know that we must be very determined to do something until
we reach success in our life. Without courage we might not reach our goals.
Because of courage we are able to have the feeling of comfort as we strive to
become successful.
“Finally, I am very
grateful to all my
teachers who have
tried their best to
educate me to learn
about courage and
face the world with
a brave spirit.”
For example, I would really like to become a good teacher. Because of that,
I must try to study hard and face any difficulties until I graduate from twelfth
grade. If I am able to become a teacher, I want to be an excellent teacher
who has enough ability to inspire my students to be smart and brave. My aim
is to do my best to teach kids to have the courage to realize their dreams of
becoming smart and well educated. I hope that my courage will inspire my
students to be brave and successful in becoming good teachers for the next
generation of children.
In any case, I wish to pass the exams that will allow me to complete high
school and become an inspiring teacher. I want to have courage and
determination to overcome all obstacles to my success without any bashfulness.
Finally, I am very grateful to all my teachers who have tried their best to
educate me to learn about courage and face the world with a brave spirit.
