QSource 3.12 – Courage: Setting Aside Fear To Turn Hardship Into Grace
f3nation.com/q/courage/

Here are some of the things that stuck out to me from this week’s QSource content:
– To give over completely to one’s instinct to avoid danger, regardless of the consequences, is the opposite of courage.
– Courage begins with the recognition that while peace should always be our goal, there are some threats that confront the Community that simply must be fought.
– (talking about the Jester) He is a master corrupter, who hollows out a man’s vitality from the inside, leaving him too exhausted to overcome hardship.
– The virtuous leader intentionally exposes himself to expected hardships in order to build the durability he will need to overcome the unexpected hardships that await him so that he can turn them into grace.

COT:
The Thing In Front Of You Is Not Really “The Thing”
– I eluded to this in the pre-blast on Slack
– I heard this quote from Rick Dunn, who came and spoke at the July Convergence at Shamrock this year.
– It really got me thinking – because as many of you know, this passport thing that Megan and I have been going through has absolutely been the thing right in front of us, right in front of our faces.
– But then I got to thinking about this idea that “the thing in front of you isn’t really “the thing.”
– So, then what’s the real thing?
– Some examples of what it’s been for me: a lack of faith or trust, impatience, pride, a need for control, etc.
– Because there is some freedom in the fact of realizing that the thing in front of you is never really the thing, but it’s reflective of what’s actually going on inside.
