Loved how you began with the difference between bravery and courage; never had thought about it deeply until you shared their difference.

Then you transitioned into your personal story...having read a lot from you: this was a big step for you. I felt you showed more vulnerability, and it was nice - we feel more connected to you, and we can empathize.

The phrase, "the less I thought, the sooner it would be over." I could have written that about MANY places in my earlier life - and I have a huge tendency to sway to that mindset.

Bravo to you for facing it and discovering the courage you do have to take care of what is consuming you.

Wonderful message -- great writing Raj! Have a beautiful day!
