THE HEALING POWER OF LOVING WORDS
Love is a language and is accompanied by many words and expressions: I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, YOU LOOK GREAT, LET US KNOW WHEN YOU ARRIVE, I MISS YOU, I WAS WAITING FOR YOUR MESSAGE, YOU ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO ME, I WANT TO SPEND TIME WITH YOU. They could be just words, but the affections expressed in each of them nourish the Soul.
Don't be afraid of affective words. It is a social evil of these times not to want to use affective words because they are considered RIDICULOUS or because they express weakness. But on the contrary, they express strength, because these words keep us healthy and help us spread healing in the most hurt hearts.
With words of LOVE AND AFFECTION you can inject STRENGTH, MOTIVATION, VALUE, COURAGE AND DETERMINATION into people. Don't be afraid to be kind and tell each person what's positive about them.
Don't be afraid to tell your friend YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL, because maybe she's been hurt so badly by her looks that she doesn't feel that way. Don't be afraid to say I LOVE YOUR ATTITUDE, how you face every problem, I learn a lot from you, because sometimes things are not so easy for that person and they can be motivated by your words.
LESS CRITICISM AND MORE AFFECTION
Criticism is good because it helps us improve as a society. However, we are so saturated with harsh critics that we have forgotten the words of affection, those that really motivate us to move forward.
When a person only receives criticism, no matter where they come from, no matter if you shield them under the I TELL YOU BECAUSE I LOVE YOU, they will not be able to recognize the good in them because their view of themselves is only negative.
That's why words of affection are worth gold these days where everyone has something to criticize. Because affectionate words give people identity, they tell them how good and valuable there is in them and motivate them to make changes in the rest of the things that are a bit crooked in their personality or appearance.
A person does not want you to tell him that he is overweight and that he should lose weight and that you tell him because you love him. What she wants to hear from you is how valuable and precious she is to you, what you like, and what looks good on her.
If you reinforce him with Love, perhaps he will make the right decisions to improve his lifestyle and health.
And it's not about being fake and overly positive. Nobody can give what they do not have inside, so to give loving words that really nourish the soul of those around you, give yourself words of love every day that help you get up with encouragement.
God bless you greatly
