Moral Courage to stand up when needed.

Moral Courage. That’s a question/thought that runs through my mind from time to time. Will or do you have what it takes to say something when everyone is saying your crazy and you need to sit you ass down and shut up. Even if it falls on deaf ears. Many of us would like to think that we’re pillars of moral courage and can stand up when things get rough regarding issues. But let me just say standing up for what you believe in is brave, and standing up for yourself is even braver. I know I know, you say, but so in so stood up and look at them. But wow, I’m all over the place. Okay, so as I was saying when you stand up for yourself or what you perceive as injustice stand by. It’s not all sunny and green. People that used to talk to you wont speak. Your phone is idle. They mean well but they don’t wanna be connected to or have anything to do with someone who doesn’t go with the status quo. This is even greater in small groups. But after the dust settles and the clouds clear you’ll be a much happier person. All those pent-up emotions that you failed to express if not channeled turn into cancer or other debilitating diseases. When how you eat is tied to you standing up that’s when most people waver more, but what I’ve learned is that no matter what things always seem to work out for people who stand up. I don’t know what it is but something in the universe just works things out. So when you need to stand up for yourself go right ahead and don’t be afraid, but there is gonna be a social cost, but the cost of good health is immeasurable. Until next time, Electramorhipism out. Now the question you have to ask yourself now that you’re reading this article is will YOU have the moral courage to stand up when needed.
