bravery

An act of bravery is when someone shows courage and strength, often in difficult or scary situations.

When we talk about bravery, we usually mean doing something that requires a lot of guts. For example, if someone rushes into a burning building to save a child, that's an act of bravery. We might also think of people who do brave things like skydiving or rock climbing as being brave. But bravery isn't just for big, exciting moments – it can be everyday acts too. Like speaking up in a meeting at work when you have a different idea, even if others disagree with you. Or standing up to someone who's bullying another person. Bravery is about being willing to face challenges and take risks, even when it feels hard or uncomfortable.
