The courage to stand up
Greetings! I'm Christian Robicheau, assistant editor at http://www.sterlingcreations.ca.
It is the end of January and I would like to end this month with a very inspiring editorial from our president Donna j. Jodhan.
I hope you can take strength from her editorial.
I wish you a great day.

The courage to stand up
By Donna J. Jodhan
The courage to stand up for one's rights and beliefs should not be taken too lightly. Some of us can do it more easily than others. There are those who do it because of their strong belief and resolve. Those who do it because they believe that following the leader is the right thing to do and those who do it because they feel that there is nothing else to do.
There are those who do not stand up because they are afraid of the ramifications. Those who would rather have others do it for them and those who are simply too lazy to do it. Whatever the reasons, the courage to stand up is often a very difficult thing to do. You want to stand up but you are afraid even though you know that you need to stand up. You are often afraid of what your friends and family would say if they knew that you were standing up. You want to do it but you are afraid of being identified with it. You want to do it but your courage fails you.
Standing up is something that is a personal preference and no one should be admonished if they fail to do it. The only thing that I ask is that if you believe then you should not be afraid to say so. Stand up because you believe and do it because you feel that you have no choice.
I'm Donna J. Jodhan wishing you a terrific day and weekend.
