Courage to me is having the guts to do things you should do, either for you alone or for the good of everyone. It does seem that it is the opposite of fear however i don't think so. I actually wrote an article about this as well. Feel free to read it here: http://ow.ly/6adAL Anyway, the opposite of fear can be anything from acceptance, trust and security. Courage kinda means you hope that you can do what you are gonna do. It can also be as you say, it being borne out of fear, like when you finally get the guts to face your fears, that's when you experience courage. It is a good thing to have around but sometimes unenlightened people do not like it when people are courageous so they try and trample on people's hopes and dreams. Ah well...
