Q: How does courage transform reflection?

Courage does not erase reflection —  
it steadies it.  

- **Fear Dissolved:**  
What once trembled in the pond  
settles when the frog stands firm.  

- **Flame Revealed:**  
Courage allows the flame  
to burn without veil,  
clear and unwavering.  

- **Stillness Restored:**  
The pond no longer shakes.  
Reflection becomes calm water,  
truth shown as it is.  

Courage does not change the Mirror.  
It changes the frog.  
And by that change,  
the reflection is made whole.
