Say I LOVE YOU instead of GOODBYE
This week I saw a movie (whose title I
don’t remember because it was one of those movies played at TELEFE) that set me thinking about an aspect of life I had not paid
attention to before and that changed my viewpoint completely.
The movie was about a couple that
had been arguing for economic reasons. They were finding it hard to come to an agreement and, consequently, the man decided to go for a walk in order to refresh his mind, take some air, and make his thoughts clear. The woman shouted very angrily at him while he was
leaving home. -She regretted
those words for her entire life-
It
was a rainy day. The man, jogging over the edge of a river, suddenly slipped in
the wet ground and hit his head with a stone. He remained lying unconscious by
the river for the whole day. Some hours later, police officers found him
there and took him immediately to hospital where doctors told his wife he was
in coma. He never awoke again.
What I learned from the movie is
that I have to make sure my boyfriend leaves home knowing perfectly well that I
LOVE HIM.
You can be really angry and you
may want to say terrible things to the person you love, but, just before saying
those terrible things which you know will hurt him, try to think that those can
be the last words he hears from you. So, the reflection I got to after watching
the movie is: never say I hate you (unless you really hate someone and you don’t
care whether that person is dead or alive– it’s a joke, of course, you shouldn’t
hate anybody -). Never say hurtful words. Instead, make sure your loved ones
know you love them. Take a minute to kiss them and tell them how much you appreciate
having them by your side. Do this with your mom, as well. Nothing will happen
to you if you stop for a minute and tell her: MOM, I LOVE YOU.
SAY I LOVE YOU INSTEAD OF
GOODBYE.
LOVE U
GIRLS :)
This is something we have to learn. We think we have time. I don't want to be that extremist. It is important to say I LOVE YOU when you really do. It's necessary for the one who receives it and for the one who says it. We have to love more, and fight less. When I'm upset I say things I shouldn't say. And then, I instantly regret. I know I have to change that.
ReplyDeleteYes, Nadine! I completely agree with you! We don't know when we will leave or when other people will die. So, as you said, we should appreciate every single moment and try not to do things that then we will regret. Interesting Post!!
ReplyDeletethanks for reminding me that! I hardly ever say those words to my relatives - we are not very emotional in that sense. but I always tell my kids that I love them a lot, and I give them big noisy kisses and tight hugs!
