FORTITUDE

 I've been reading a book by C.S. LEWIS about the qualities needed to be a real person, one who sees the value of always doing the right thing, for the right reasons. Perhaps, Fortitude is a good explanation of this kind of person.

Using today's 'language', we would say a person with GUTS,  having the courage to stick to something, no matter what the cost Whatever word may be used, I believe Fortitude says so much. 

So, where does that leave us?  Is such a quality to be found in what we do and what we say, and who we are?

When writing a story, creatively, we always want our Hero to be a person, full of courage and fortitude, willing to stand up to all the bullies of this world. Yes, we want heros in our stories / we want heros in our life!
