The Third Day of Yuletide - December 22nd
The third day of Yule, we light a candle and remember Courage.
Courage is all around us in many guises. It is the man or woman who intervenes to drive off a mugger or a rapist. It is the mother cat who gives her life that her kittens might live. It is the scholar who holds an unpopular political opinion and doesn't back down. It is the internal power to get out of bed and face each morning when everything seems futile, hopeless, and painful. Courage means mastering our fears and doing our duty, regardless of the cost.
Let us be Courageous!
This day, I will pour a libation to Tyr, who gave his hand and bound the wolf.
I will be Courageous this day.
