    Courage is defined as the ability to do something frightening or difficult, like facing pain, grief, or adversity. It involves strength, bravery, and fearlessness. Courage can be demonstrated through both grand acts, like those who fought for civil rights or in wars, and everyday acts, such as confronting a bully or asking someone on a date. Courage is an important trait that allows people to defend their freedom and values, even in their daily lives, but its meaning is often underappreciated.
