Fonda, and other specifics aside, it is easy to see we all operate from fear, some more than others.
I don't know that I am brave enough to be a pacifist, or strong enough to live from love rather than fear, but that is my wish.
Oh. Ok. I don't fear what she's doing or what she did, I loathe it. I have tremendous disdain for those offering quarter and comfort to our enemies.
"All men are timid on entering any fight. Whether it is the first or the last fight, all of us are timid. Cowards are those who let their timidity get the better of their manhood."

Courage is fear holding on a minute longer.
- General George Patton Jr
"Perpetual peace is a futile dream."
- General George S. Patton, Jr
If we take the generally accepted definition of bravery as a quality which knows no fear, I have never seen a brave man. All men are frightened. The more intelligent they are, the more they are frightened.

There is a huge amount of freedom that comes to you when you take nothing personally.
Nothing other people do is because of you. It is because of themselves.

"Bravery" has nothing to do with the absence of fear. Bravery is having fear, but doing that which you fear, anyway.
That isn't at all inconsistent with the Patton quote.
Ohhhhh noooo 6th....do we have to bring Patton into this.
All that was asked was if we choose fear or love? A one word answer sends a message that speaks volumns. It was an individual response asked for.....not an army's, not a response that calls for polital opinions, not for aliens, nor terrorists....only little ole YOU and Me!Courage is in saying what you believe then letting it go........I know it's so hard to stop attacking other's or to stop wanting to debate. I struggle with that every day. There is a lack of lonliness in having someone to debate, argue, agree, or even step back and ponder the beliefs of others. Within that, resides a comfort zone that whom in their right mind would want to give up.....for what?
Fear or Love?
How the hell did this become a thread about war????

Fear or Love?
The question, beyond being incredibly stupid, commits a false dilemma, an appeal to emotion, and countless other fallacies too numerous to mention. One does not have to make the choice if they want to live in love or fear. I know that slogan fits well on a tie-dyed shirt, but to those of us that haven?t recently taken a bong hit, it?s laughable. It?s like walking into Fish House and having a server berate you with the offering the grouper special or a can of anchovies. I?m there for the sushi.
