    No, and I'm not sure what you are trying to say. Can you explain it differently and we will try to help.

    In future, please try to make your thread titles more relevant. A good title for this would have been "My courage stood me up".

    Maybe "When I was a child learning to walk, I fell over a lot, but I was brave enough to stand up and try again each time".
