Always say “I love you”—don’t wait for perfect days,
Say it in the morning light, in quiet, simple ways.
Say it when the coffee brews, when shoes are by the door,
Say it when you don’t know why, or what you’re saying it for.
Say it when the world feels light, and when it feels too much,
Say it in a crowded room, or in a wordless touch.
Say it when you’re angry, tired, or feeling far apart,
Say it like a whisper carved from the chambers of your heart.
Say it when you’re laughing loud, or crying late at night,
Say it when the stars come out and bathe the sky in light.
Say it through the seasons—fall and winter, spring to blue—
Let every heartbeat echo soft: I love you. I love you.
Because the days are fleeting things, and time will never pause,
But love, when spoken freely, defies all nature’s laws.
So always say “I love you”—not once, not just a few—
Say it like it’s breathing…
Say it, and mean it, too.
Thank-you for reading.
Remember there are many paths back to God.
Follow your own path,

This is absolutely beautiful. A powerful and poignant reminder that love is not a grand gesture reserved for perfect moments, but a constant, breathing truth that weaves itself into the ordinary, the difficult, and the quiet. You’ve captured the essence of how love is made real in the ordinary, and how those three words, spoken sincerely, can truly defy time itself. Thank you for this.
