I was just listening to a news story about regular people (one was a welder, another a sausage-maker) in Ukraine who were arming themselves to fight for their country. I'm amazed at people like this (and people who join the armed forces, in general) because I'm a big chicken and I don't know if I could ever physically fight someone. I remember watching Saving Private Ryan and thinking -- why don't they just run away?
What about you? Do you consider yourself brave? If your country were invaded, do you think you would you stay to fight or try to get out of the way? Are there times you've had to stand up and be brave? I suspect that many of us as moms would be brave if necessary for the sake of our kids, if pushed.
