Bravery?

It is easy to be brave from a safe distance - Aesop
I find it so easy to talk in front of people, when faced with opposition.
Yet when it comes to my friends, it is hard to tell them some things.
Go at it boldly, and you'll find unexpected forces surrounding you and coming to your aid. - Basil King
How do I tell the people I love most about things that will hurt them?
How can I hurt them in that way?
Fortune Favors the Brave - Aida
I guess I either need to get it over with and tell them, or just get over it. Either way I need to get over it.
Anyway onto a more exciting topic.

The hardest of all is learning to be a well of affection, and not a fountain: to show them we love them not when we feel like it, but when they do. - Nan Fairbrother
Immature love says: 'I love you because I need you.' Mature love says: ' I need you because I love you.' - Erich Fromm
Love doesn't just sit there like a stone; it has to be made, like bread, remade all the time, made new. - Ursula K. LeGuin
Ama me fideliter! Fidem meam noto: De corde totaliter Et ex mente tota, Sum persentialiter Absens in emota.
Latin: Love me faithfully! See how I am faithful: With all my heart and all my soul I am with you though I am far away. - Carl Orff
