Exactly!
I have found over time that the people who irritate me the most are the ones most like me!

One day you will realize that material things mean nothing
and all that matters is the well-being of the people in your life.

The tragedy is how long it takes some to realize this, and how little they can do about it with what little life they have left.

Courage is not the absence of fear,
it is the determination to do something in spite of the fear.
Have courage to live your dreams.

I will take it a step further. Agreed that being courageous is action in spite of fear, I would recommend that one rather lives fearless. Confidence is action without fear. It isn’t fighting doubt. It is establishing on the outside what has already been decided on the inside. Be confident!

A conversation with my son about the Big Bang, steered me to this: once we were an egg. United with a sperm cell, it caused a Big Bang! At that second, mitosis began, unleashing the information stored within that DNA. Systems within systems, balancing, energizing, forming and growing. Most of us imagine our Creator as this sculptor forming Adam out of clay, but really analyzing our own development, can we fathom the possibility that God had DNA for the Universe. I’m not suggesting an evolutionary development, but a blueprint that was designed giving the foreplanned structure like He did with us?
