Action Speak Louder Than Words By peace The story is told of the mother who came home after a long hard day. Her little girl ran out of the house to greet her. “Mommy, Mommy, wait until I tell you what happened today.“ After listening to a few sentences, the mother responded by indicating the rest could wait as she needed to get dinner started. During the meal, the phone rang, then other family members’ stories were longer and louder than the little girl’s. Once again, she tried after the kitchen was cleaned and the brother’s homework questions were answered, but then it was time for her to get ready for bed. The mom came to tuck her little girl in and quickly listened to her prayers. As she bent down to tousle the little one’s curls and to kiss her soft cheek, the child looked up and asked,”Mommy, do you really love me even if you don’t have time to listen to me?” Action speaks louder than words. When you say “I Love You”, do you really mean it? It is so easy to say this three words, but how true do we know that the person who uttered these words know the true meaning of these words. When you say “I Love You” to you child, and yet you did not do anything to show that you love your child, does it justify what you say to your child? When you say “I Love You” to your child, how well do you understand your child? How much do you know about your child? How much time do you spend with your children? Can they feel your love if you just say “I love you?” Love is more than just words can say.
