Courage, An important hero's tool.

 Courage.

Love it? Hate it? What is its purpose in creating heroes?

Well. Courage is the building block of underdog heroes. Lets take into account something like STAR WARS. Star wars is a perfect example for courage; Luke doesn't exactly enjoy the idea of his family being murdered by the empire, but faces the threat like a [whiny] man and decides to go with Ben Kenobi on his adventures. Little did Luke know, old Ben was Obi wan Kenobi, a general in the clone wars. Luke had more then he bargained for.

Star wars reviews aside (for we WILL get to those star wars reviews) Luke shows a remarkable amount of courage in the activities he shortly after leaving his home. Luke, a boy who had barely seen the cities on his own planet, decides to travel off world in a vain attempt to help this princess who spontaneously popped into his life.

Courageous? I think so. Webster's Dictionary says the following: Mental or Moral strength to venture, persevere  and withstand danger, fear, or difficulty.

 What does that mean? What do you think it means?

 Prompt: Courage. . . Well, write about a time, scene, or scenario where the hero is courageous. I think that's an appropriate topic.
