True love tells you the truth, gently.

Some people only tell you what you want to hear. Others tell you the truth in a way that wounds.

True love does something harder: it tells you the truth, gently. It says "I think you're wrong about this" and "I'm still on your side" in the same breath.

It won't let you walk into a fire without speaking up. But it won't set you on fire to prove a point either.

Keep the people who love you enough to be honest, and kind enough to do it softly.
