Today I am thinking about how many ways I can express love without words.
This idea came to me when a dear friend of mine recently took the time to warm the milk for my morning coffee. This small delight, this loving gesture, made me realize that I/we can change the mood of our immediate surroundings just by displaying an authentic expression of “love without words”. A sincere smile, a polite gesture, a kind and listening heart, the pure and total acceptance of a differing opinion: all of these are examples of expressing “love without words”!
Whether I am at home or traveling, I like to make the daily effort to consciously connect with others and to practice some form of “love without words.” It is my opinion that it is not just the action itself that matters, but rather the pure intention behind it.
In the busyness of tasking my way through life, it is often easy to forget the importance of these simple gestures. I know that I am never finished practicing this exercise, but hopefully my daily efforts of “love without words,” will add a bit more joy, pleasure, and respect to my own corner of the world.
