"If you love someone,you say it,you say it right there,out loud.Otherwise the moment just passes you by. "
- My Best Friend's Wedding
This movie always gets me in way that's inexplicable .. maybe because when I thought I'd found the one , I chose to express it right then , right there , out loud ..or maybe because what would/could have happened if I'd waited for an opportune time ..
All I know now is that in every relationship that you share , love needs to be expressed - simple knowledge of this fact is never enough nor should it be an excuse ..
It might mean taking out that little extra time or putting in that extra effort but with the countless ways one can
express love , methinks sometimes its way easier than just saying it .. not that you shouldn't say it .. infact you should say it a lot , you should say it everyday if you can..because words are not a substitute for expression..
but little things like a compliment , a smile , a phone call , a thoughtful gift , a thank you note , a miss you card , spending time , taking a walk , sending flowers , doing a favor , having coffee , a hug , a kiss and so many more go a long long way ..
because , no matter how small or big the act , it reaffirms and rejuvenates your love ..
because , no matter how small or big the act , people never forget how you've made them feel .. and every one of us ,more than we'd like to acknowledge , absolutely love being made to feel 'special ' .

So go on , make someone feel special today ..make someone feel LOVED !!
and then do it as often as you can ..
Much love !

ReplyDeletePriya, I'm so happy you've decided to do Love Bytes again this year! Yay! This is the perfect post to start off this love series! It allows us to ponder how love really is about the little things but showing our love, that's the essence of a loving relationship! :)
