*Courage is not the Absence of Fear...*
"Someone said courage is not the absence of fear but acting in spite of it. This was why I agreed to visit a Chinese bakery with Toluwanimi. I had never gone out with a lady. It felt good when she suggested it and she was to pay. I didn't know what to wear, how to talk or act when spending time alone with a lady. Fear. We were friends but I didn't want to “fall my hand." When the Sunday arrived, I thought of canceling." Bon appétit.
