Bravery
Bravery You're walking down the street, coming home from school, and all of a sudden you hear
a shrill voice calling "Help! Help!" You run toward the voice and when you run about a block up
the street you smell smoke. You look up and see a house totally engulfed in flames. You see a
woman on the lawn of the burning building crying, "Help! Help! My baby's inside!" "Inside the
burning building?" you ask. The woman nods her head up and down. You tell her not to worry, that
you'll save her baby. You run inside. Heat surrounds you. Your eyes sting and you can hardly
breathe with all of the smoke, but you keep progressing because you know that you've got to save
that baby. You make your way up the stairs, flames jumping at you

At the beginning of the play the murderer, who happens to be the narrator, tells how he went
about murdering a man with an "evil vulture eye." He insists that he was really only destroying
the eye, that he only killed the man to rid himself of the dreaded gaping eyeball that had been
haunting him. So, the way that I see it is that the narrator is trying to convince himself that he
was brave enough to finally rid himself of the haunting eye that he may have been genuinely
afraid of. What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word brave? Do you
think about a superhero, or maybe a soldier that fights for our country? Bravery is the ability to
face danger, fear or pain. Bravery is the quality of a person who displays courage and fearlessness
in the face of danger. Such qualities show splendor and magnificence in a person. Fear and terror
sometimes hinder the determination someone can show. Overcoming this fear is what portrays
bravery. The boldest of individuals is the one who abides by his or her conscience. In Night the
main character Ellie Weisel whom is also the author went through a dreadful struggle in a
concentration camp. Through all the hardships, he obeyed his conscience and never abandoned his
dad and he also managed to maintain his faith. In To Kill a Mocking bird by Harper Lee a different
type of bravery is shown, Scout and Jem have to face a town that thinks their

Bravery Definition
Many things have a clear definition. However, some do not. What is bravery? Is it that you are
willing to physically fight? Is it that you are fearless? To me, bravery is never giving up and
standing up for what you believe in despite whatever the circumstances.
Giving up is quite easy. Once one little thing goes wrong, many people decide to take the easy way
out and quit. One person who shows great bravery in this sense is my mother. When she was young,
her father had a stroke and his right side of his body became paralyzed. She was about 7 when her
father passed away. She wanted to stay with her immediate family, but she was forced to go live
with her aunt until about when she was 17 when she moved to Nuevo Laredo, with no help, to study.

When I was Brave
Everyone has done something that they feel is brave. For some people is might be picking up a
spider because your friend is allergic to them, other people might find it to be brave if you tell
your teacher that you cheated on a test. Bravery comes in many ways but is still the same thing.
Bravery is not when you are fearless but it is when you have to guts and mental strength to
overcome those fears. However bravery should not be confused with an absence of common
sense. Bravery is when you might have to jump of a cliff with no parachute to save someone.
However jumping of a cliff with no safety equipment for fun shows a lack of common sense.
Bravery is not to ignore fear but to crush it, and this essay is a story of how I conquered mine.
This event had occurred about three and a half years ago when I had just joined Boy–Scouts. I was
just ten years old and I was in the middle of my fifth grade summer vacation. At that time I had gone
a campout or a day–hike almost every week. We had to many locations such as Mission Peak,
Mount Diablo,
Yosemite National park, Pinnacles, and many other beautiful campsites. But, one time we had
gone to a new place for a small backpacking hike and to camp over the night. I was very excited and
had packed carefully for the spring weather. When the day had finally come I had eagerly gone to
the Mission Valley School, and from there we drove to the campsite. Unfortunately the parking lot
was full so it was blocked. Because of the block we had to

Bravery, And Honor
Bravery, Honor. Ask yourself are you brave and honored. I ask because our Veterans are. They
fought for our freedoms. They are so important. As a family member of many Veterans. I have
heard about the sacrifices they made and the things they had to leave behind, and I am grateful to
have people who sacrifice their lives to make sure we get what we need and to make us happy.
Today Veterans are not treated as highly as they should be. Without Veterans we wouldn't be able
to go to school and get an education. We wouldn't be able to fight for what we as the people
believe. I was again state our Veteran our important to today's society. They also were able to given
us the biggest thing any would want to keep our freedom. I couldn't imagine a world
