Thanks to Sharon A. Hersh and her book "Brave Hearts: Unlocking the Courage to Love with Abandon".
"...three characteristics of a braveheart. Brave hearts are willing to wait, to ask and to act. Extravagant love waits - weeks, months, even years. It is a continuing story that is not chased away by pain and is confident of living and loving within the pain. Waiting strengthens faith. Extravagant love asks for help, another chance, support and opportunity. Asking energises hope. Extravagant love acts, changing even if those we love do not. Extravagant love embraces the truth that as we love, we discover love. Acting demonstrates love. Waiting, asking, acting - faith, hope and love. And the greatest of these is love."
