Valiant


This looks like a great animated movie! I Love the Sarge!

There used to a UK comic called Valiant, way back in the 1970's, my favourite was Captain Hurricane, a real action hero if ever. Looking back I realise he was a sort of role model both in my military career and my life. Honour with righteous rage and leading by example. Funny how something like this can inlfuence one's life without one really realising that. I must say I am looking back a lot these days an doing some self analasys, must be the effect of seeing a therapist!
So as I bravely face the future I go out with these words from the Corrs.
Baby be Brave - The Corrs
Maybe deep down inside, you don’t believe it
Your wailing wall, it isn’t weeping at all
And you’re not worthy of adoration
You’re scared that somebody somewhere’s gonna find the burst pipe
And as fast as they bow down they’ll leave you behind
But baby be brave cause what’s the point of it all
What’s the point of it all yeah
Baby don’t blow it, tell me what’s it all for
If you’re not terrified to fail
Are you terrified to fail?

Way far down below you don’t feel it
Yeah everyone knows but we don’t believe it
The pain of a pop star you’re breaking my heart

But baby be brave ‘cause what’s the point of it all
What’s the point of it all yeah?
Baby don’t blow it, tell me what’s it all for
If you’re not terrified to fail

(Confide in me, tell your story)
Are you terrified to fail?
(It’s your fear that makes you worthy)

I know what you’re doing ‘cause
God I’ve been tempted, you are
Drowning the special to
Immortalize the rise
And what’s the point of it all

Baby be brave ‘cause what’s the point of it all
What’s the point of it all yeah?
Baby don’t blow it, tell me what’s it all for
If you’re not terrified to fail

(Confide in me, tell your story)
Are you terrified to fail?
(It’s your fear that makes you worthy)
I am terrified to fail
(Confide in me, tell your story)
Are you terrified to fail?
(It’s your fear that makes you worthy)
I may have done these lyrics before, seems like the search ain't working so well, in any case they go with the sentiment of the day...
"Cowards die many times before their deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once.
Of all the wonders that I yet have heard,
It seems to me most strange that men should fear;
Seeing that death, a necessary end,
Will come when it will come."
William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616), "Julius Caesar", Act 2 scene 2
