Braveheart
True Courage
Socrates once said, "He is a man of courage who does not run away, but remains at his post and fights against the enemy." People around the globe have been suffering injustice; a disease that kills values, injures dignity and leads some people to revenge, preferring death to life. Injustice affects individuals as well as societies and the whole world. It is a disease created by human to dehumanize human. Throughout an individual’s life, one might come across many significant injustices that challenge an individual’s courage, self-respect, and whether or not an individual has enough strength to stand up to their morals and values. What is courage; well it is the ability to face danger, difficulty, uncertainty, or pain without being overcome by fear or being deflected from a chosen course of action. In the film, Braveheart, Randall Wallace pursues a courageous warrior, William Wallace, as he fights for his nation-state’s freedom from a dictator, Edward Longshanks. Every human being on this planet is given the gift of courage. However, there are very few that ever take advantage of this gift, and actually put it to good use. Courage is the ability to work one’s way through a tough situation. Be it mental, or physical. Individuals have all faced tough challenges before, the difference, however, is that some people tend to give up when the going gets rough, while others keep on.
Initially, Wallace loses his family due to the English; this problem stimulates his hate for England. Before his death Malcolm Wallace told William “I know you can fight, but it is our wits that make us men.” This quote from Wallace’s father means you can fight but one’s wisdom triumphs all. Moral and values are what make up a human being, one must be awakened to battle the unfairness brought upon one’s self or a collective. All individuals have a virtue of courage inside their body and the true visionaries will pursue their dreams until the end. Throughout the film it is
