Is it true????
Albert Camus says, “Those who lack the courage will always find a philosophy to justify it.”
What if I just agree to the fact that I do not have the courage to do something and not philosophize it?? Does that make it better? Or what??

3Folks who don't take action because they lack courage and don't want to admit that, usually justify that the action itself is not worth taking. This discourages the folks who do have the courage.
Admitting to lack of courage simply means that the action is justified and worth taking, just that I would not be the person taking that.
Emotions like guilt, anger and other uncomfortable ones gently nudge us to understand that parts of our lives where we would change.
Personally, i sit with the guilt of being in my own bubble while there are people out being active against the injustice happening in the outside world. I figured that presently i can help fund the efforts and spread awareness in my smaller groups- and perhaps, in time find the courage to do bigger things.
Maybe you can ask yourself a bit more of what and why this situation makes you guilty about inaction- and maybe, if there is a smaller effort that you can take and still be part of it
