Ways to Say I Love You Megan Woods
There are so many ways to say “I love you”. You can say it with words, yes, but you can also say it by buying your best friend those ghost-patterned socks at Target that made you think of her. Maybe your brother says it by picking you up from band practice because you really don’t want to carry your saxophone case all the way home (Even if he whines about paying for gas the entire time). You can say it by sending your nana a postcard from your trip to Arizona with your family. Sure, it’s nothing but a piece of cardstock with a pretty picture and a couple of sentences, but you thought of her, right? Your dog certainly lets you know when he licks your cheeks and wags his tail whenever you come home, even if you’re just circling back into the house because you left your wallet on your desk.
Your mom says it in the way she saves some of the smoothie she just made for you. She knows you like the strawberry banana ones, and she could have easily drank it herself, but she didn’t. But sometimes you can’t say it. Maybe you’re too scared, or you’re nowhere near them, or it’s too late. 57
