Valor is stability, not of legs and arms, but of courage and the soul.

Real bravery lives less in the body than in a steadiness underneath. Strength and speed can falter, and anyone who has faced danger knows the body sometimes shakes whatever the will intends. What holds is an inner firmness, a settled sense of what you are doing and why, that keeps you from being swept away when fear is loudest.

When you face something frightening, the trembling is not a verdict on your courage. Try steadying the inner part instead: remember what you are there for, breathe, and take the next step. That settled centre is something you can return to, even with unsteady hands.
