Our vocabulary begins to grow at birth. Months before we can speak our first words, we already understand many. Nevertheless, there are no words in the whole of human language more important than the three I want to discuss today.

These are not three words randomly chosen. These are three words grouped together to form a very familiar sentence. "I love you". Notice in this sentence love is the verb. Remember in school how the teacher emphasized that most verbs are "action" words? So, love means doing, showing, expressing, understanding, believing, knowing. Can you think of any statement more powerful, heartfelt, or more longed for than "I love you"? We are all guilty of not saying it enough. We decide somewhere along the way that those we love should know simply because. Focus more on putting those words into action with not only what you do but what you say. Tell your children, your parents, your friends, your co-workers. Let not a day begin and end without you verbally expressing your love to those who matter in your life.

Tell someone today how much you love them. They probably already know but I'm sure they would "love" to hear it.

MAKE YOUR DAY COUNT!
