YOU need to fight, you are a fighter. Your greatest weapon in the biggest battle that goes on unseen is TRUTH. No matter how badly it hurts the self at first, you must wage war with the truth, and if this means you walk in humility for the truth to be made known, well then you walk in humility and let the self be hung on the cross as you carry it and trust in Jesus to resurrect only what He can resurrect..but in order to resurrect, it must be put to death."You are a fighter", I tell myself, "fight by telling the truth." If you want to be the one who takes a flight in the face of adversity, then hide behind lies or half truths..but that is just declaring war against your own heart, the heart that Jesus Christ died to save, that He fought for with His very self...who came to us full of grace and truth...truth...it is the only path to freedom, not one that entails smelling the roses all the time, but it is worth it even when telling the truth to yourself or a loved one feels like you're laying down in a bed of thorns, do not let fear take over...for that path will get you somewhere for sure, but not to the Author and Perfecter of our faith, the one great Physician, the one great Healer, the One who came to set the captives FREE.
So pick up your sword, and fight with knowing the truth and telling the truth, even if it hurts..it's only hurting the self-life...and that self-life is dead, crucified on the cross, that the new creation may live...it hurts, but will bring you on the path to freedom. Please..choose freedom, choose to tell the truth no matter how much it costs...you are worth it, I am worth it, if you have flesh and blood, then you are worth it...and THAT is the TRUTH.
