Some random thoughts on tough love.
Tough love . . .
. . . is not mean love. It is
still kind and gracious.
. . . has teary eyes not clenched
jaws. It is firm, but not angry.
. . . is not judgmentalism under
the guise of caring.
. . . is painful and heartbreaking
for the one delivering it.
. . . is forgiving, but not
permissive.
. . . uses a scalpel, not a
machete.
. . . seeks to set people free,
not to set people straight.
