Meaning of "I Love You"
Can you say "I love you" any better?
What Love means to a 4-8 year old . . Slow down for three
minutes to read this. It is so worth it.
Touching words from the mouth of babes.
A group of professional people posed this question to a group of
4 to 8 year-olds, 'What does love mean?' The answers they got were broader
and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'Love is what makes you smile when you're tired.'
Terri - age 4
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a
sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.'
Danny - age 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of
kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more.
My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they
kiss'
Emily - age 8
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop
opening presents and listen.'
Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a
friend who you hate,'
Nikka - age 6
(we need a few million more Nikka's on this planet)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears
it everyday.'
Noelle - age 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are
still friends even after they know each other so well.'
Tommy - age 6
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I
looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling.
He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore.'
Cindy - age 8
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'My mommy loves me more than anybody
You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night.'
Clare - age 6
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken.'
Elaine-age 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says
he is handsomer than Robert Redford.'
Chris - age 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him
alone all day.'
Mary Ann - age 4
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her
old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones.'
Lauren - age 4
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and
little stars come out of you.' (what an image)
Karen - age 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But
if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget.'
Jessica - age 8
--------------------------------------------------------------------
And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once
talked about a contest he was asked to judge.
The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.
The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor
was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.
Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old
gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.
When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the
little boy said,
'Nothing, I just helped him cry'
--------------------------------------------------------------------
When there is nothing left but God, that is when you find out
that God is all you need. Take 60 seconds and give this a shot! All you do
is simply say the following small prayer for the person who sent you this.
Heavenly Father, please bless all my friends in whatever it is
that You know they may be needing this day! And may their life be full of
Your peace, prosperity and power as he/she seeks to have a closer
relationship with You Amen.
Then send it on to five other people, including the one who sent
it to you. Within hours you caused a multitude of people to pray for other
people. Then sit back and watch the power of God work in your life.
P. S. Five is good, but more is better
The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones
with the mostcredentials, the most money, or the most awards. They simply
are the ones who care the most.
