So I watched The Bucket List last night and in the movie John Mayer's Say is a featured song in it and, well, it got me to thinking.
I'm sure we all have thoughts and things we'd like to say to people in our lives. Some good things and some bad things, positive and loving things and things which would probably be hurtful to the other person but for either your or their need it should be said.
How many of us honestly take the the little bit of time we have here on earth to say what we need to say to those that matter most to us? And more importantly, while words can sometimes be hard to say they really are easy. It's action which is the difficult part. How many of us back up our words with action?
If someone means a lot to you is it enough in your eyes to just tell them that or are you like me in that action speaks louder than words and you go the extra mile to SHOW them that they mean a lot to you?
There's no doubt that we take life and people for granted. As the saying goes...
"We ignore the ones who adore us,
Adore the ones who ignore us.
Love the ones who hurt us.
And hurt the ones who love us."
It's an important message to say what we need to say and I wish *I* could bring myself to do it a lot more with those I care the most about but I find it hard to do so. Life is short...
