Courageous Comfort

Comfort. Where did this word come from? I predict Latin. Com--with, and Fort--strength.

Yet Comfort seems to have more softness than strength.

Courage comes from Latin, too. Cour--heart. So courage comes from the heart. Another syllable you wouldn't expect. Have a heart means to be sympathetic, not to be brave!

The etymology shows how people have changed. They used to think wisdom and knowledge were housed in the heart, but for hundreds of years, it moved to the Brain. Now it is moving back again. Did it move? Are we moving towards thinking more with the heart, than the brain? Eckart tolle would say it is necessary if the human race wants to survive!
