Courageous penguin

I was watching Frozen Planet when Emperor Penguin babies were all alone in a mile-long queue on the Antarctic ice bed. After hours of journey, finally the leader of the group found the ocean. The whole group stopped and started breathing hard. After a long pause, the very front one jumped into the sea, with some pause, a bunch of courageous ones took the deep. It had taken hours before the last one took a chance to follow his group by sliding down gingerly. My mind went back 70 years, and I saw how I took courage to go up the second platform of the diving deck. A few of the other kids were just behind me and screaming at me to jump. I gave them a side so that they can jump. I was not courageous enough to do so; I came down the stairs. The last Penguin is more courageous than me.
