Courage is the ability to confront situations when required and ability to tolerate situations . We need to be aware when to confront and when to tolerate . If we tolerate people or situations at wrong times , we become weaker and weaker .
This can be illustrated with a boiling frog story . Frogs have the ability to adapt to any situation and temperature . When a frog is put in boiling water , it can withstand the rising temperature .But once boiling point is reached , it has to jump out . But it won't be able to jump since it has become weaker by adapting to rising temperature and it dies . Similarly in life we need to know when to adjust to situations , people and when to confront them . We shouldn't tolerate any injustice to us or in society ,
"Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen." -Winston Churchill
