'utter Those Words'

Remember that lady you fell in love with? Do you remember that man that made your heart beat faster? The people you promised the world too? What happened to them? I know the years gone by has left their mark They might have grown a little older But do you know they still want to be your everything? Do you remember that first few months? You couldn’t compliment her enough Do you know even today, she still yearn to hear you say “Honey you look beautiful today” Do you remember how you use to text him every day? Even if it’s just to say “I miss you” What happened to those days? Life happened Do you realize that with every passing minute She might still want to hear those words again She might feel that she has lost her beauty The appeal she use to have Maybe today he might want to hear you say “I miss you” Maybe he wants to feel needed in spite of your independence Don’t forget to show you still care Even if you think they know it – Sometimes we forget to say it When the person in our lives needs to hear it the most ©161020131345

Yes indeed, life, bills, overextended debt, routine . . . All of that and more sorta dulls the senses associated with the loves of our life's. We get into a rut. Soon comes divorce. It is a shame.

How wonderful if people would just remember each day to say kind things to the people in their lives, not just new to the new people. Wonderful, Wilma

I couldn't agree MORE with this. Even the most resilient & stoic, need to be reassured in their heart. Well expressed!
