QuestionWhat does courage mean now? Sarah FrancisAnsweroriginal language english
Alvaro Restrepo: Courage means fighting for its own ideas, for its own believes.
In my opinion, courage also means to live defending the truth, but first of all I don´t believe in heroism and I don´t believe in homeland.
For this reason I believe that it is courageous to defend its own life and to defend the life of others. Defending the ideals of justice, defending the values of human life, means much courage to me too.
In addition to all this, I think that word "courage" and word "love" are synonyms. In my opinion, love is the most active form of courage.
To speak about love in a society like ours shows much courage.
