There is a notion that a courageous person is the one who talks loud , punches hard or even one whose words can inflict pain. That is not courage, it is abrasiveness. That is not courage, it is recklessness. Courage without intelligence is recklessness. Yet courage without intelligence is not a virtue. Courage without love is liability.
Avoid hurting each other under the pretext of courage. We are not courageous if we hurt others. To be courageous we must put intelligence and love into what we do. To be courageous, we need not to be abrasive, nor to be harsh. To be courageous. We must actually be gentle, as gentle as the Lord.
