Lately I have noticed more than ever

how often people use the words

“I Love You” more carelessly.

 

Simply sharing the words

in their minds makes them

feel good about themselves.

 

The words themselves should carry

more meaning in speaking them

than the reality of the real emotions

of the speaker.

 

When relating those words to another

it should also mean that “I am loyal to you.”

The words should relate that “I would never

say anything out of your presence about you,

that would be hurtful if said it to your face.”

 

Friendships should not be about gain

of one from another.

Friendships should be about

an “Honest” sharing of Love.

 

So on this day

of the few allotted to us

think carefully become using

the words “I Love You” to a friend.

The question here is

“Are you also worthy of Love?”
