were does your courage come from?

Courage…….Courage…….Courage……
I feel like the lion in the Wizard of Oz on the Yellow Brick Road, journeying to his goal unspeakable, fraught with the unknown.
I am reminded that there will be joys unspeakable in the journey. Yet, there will also be temptations. There will be heartache. There will be choices and decisions to make. There will be ominous questions asked of me.
CAN I do it? WILL I do it?
The journey seems so long. Yet I am told there will not be one inch too much. (In my doubt I, of course, ask “are you SURE?!”                
I am reminded to keep saying: “All is well.” Always say “All is well”.
Courage – Courage – Courage.
 I CAN do this. I WILL do this.
“All is well.”  
“All is well.”  
The Alaskan Northern Lights that lit up the night sky, cascading from one side of the horizon to the other, making the sky seem cathedral high, and even higher.
It is the affirmation I need.
I CAN do this. Even if  L.A. and being an “Instigator” it is WAY out of my comfort zone and people I have experienced.
I have heard that  life begins at the end of your comfort zone. 
A new beginning……..Courage…….Courage…….
How about YOU? Will YOU say “All is well, too?”
