Coward

I suspect I might be a coward.

Do we all think that when we feel our fear? Oh yes, I feel cowardly, so I must be a coward?

Is that a standard response? Is it an excuse, or an explanation? I'm a coward so I don't have to look inside at myself. I am a coward and I accept this? Or os it an excuse for bad behaviour? I am a coward so I don't have to question my actions? It is an excuse for not doing any work on myself? I'm this way and that is that?

I'm a coward.

What you are saying is that you are lazy. You are so lazy that you won't even lift a finger to stop people calling you bad names.
