One form of courage is rarely seen because there are so few examples of those who are willing to walk in the jeopardy it creates. It is the courage that comes when a person realizes they were completely wrong in their assumption and must now face the dismantling of an entire way of thinking that supported the assumption. This kind of courage is costly in relationships and resources. It can derail a life-plan and leave a person standing alone in the field of their decision. If you see one of these courageous ones standing in that unfamiliar place go to them and let them know they are not alone. Your act of compassion will itself become an act of courage.
