Three Powerful Words...

This came in as an email, I decided to post it here...

The following three-word phrases can enrich every relationship. These are just three little but very powerful words...

I'll Be There:
If you have ever had to call a friend in the middle of the night, to take a sick child to hospital, or when your car has broken down some miles from home, you will know how good it feels to hear the phrase I'll be there." Being there for another person is the greatest gift we can give. When we're truly present for other people, important things happen to them & us. We are renewed in love and friendship. We are restored emotionally and spiritually. Being there is at the very core of civility...

I Miss You:
Perhaps more marriages could be saved & strengthened if couples simply & sincerely say to each other "I miss you." This powerful affirmation tells partners they are wanted, needed, desired & loved. Consider how ecstatic you would feel, if you received an unexpected phone call from your spouse in the middle of your workday, just to say "I miss you."...


I Respect You / I Trust You:
Respect and trust is another way of showing love. Its conveys the feeling that another person is a true equal. If you talk to your children as if they were adults you will strengthen the bonds & become close friends. This applies to all interpersonal relationships...


Maybe You're Right:
This phrase is highly effective in diffusing an argument and restoring frayed emotions. The flip side to "maybe you're right" is the humility of admitting maybe "I'm wrong". Let's face it. When you have a heated argument with someone, all you do is cement the other person's point of view. They, or you, will not change their stance and you run the risk of seriously damaging the relationship between you. Saying "maybe you're right" can open the door to further explore the subject, in which you may then have the opportunity to get your view across in a more rational manner...


Please Forgive Me:
Many broken relationships could be restored and healed if people would admit their mistakes and ask for forgiveness. All of us are vulnerable to faults and failures. A man should never be ashamed to own up that he has been in the wrong, which is saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday...


I Thank You:
Gratitude is an exquisite form of courtesy. People who enjoy the companionship of good, close friends are those who don't take daily courtesies for granted. They are quick to thank their friends for their many expressions of kindness. On the other hand, people whose circle of friends is severely constricted often do not have the attitude of gratitude...

Count On Me:
A friend is one who walks in when others walk out. Loyalty is an essential ingredient for true friendship; it is the emotional glue that bonds people. Those that are rich in their relationships tend to be steady and true friends. When troubles come, a good friend is there indicating "you can count on me."...


Let Me Help:
The best of friends see a need and try to fill it. When they spot a hurt they do what they can to heal it. Without being asked, they pitch in and help...

I Understand You:
People become closer and enjoy each other more if they feel the other person accepts and understands them. Letting your spouse know in so many little ways that you understand them, is one of the most powerful tools for healing relationship. This applies to any relationship...

Go For It:
We are all unique individuals. Don't try to get your friends to conform to your ideals. Support them in pursuing their interests, no matter how weird they seem to you. Everyone has dreams, dreams that are unique to that person only. Support and encourage your friends to follow their dreams. Tell them to "go for it."...

I Love You:
Perhaps the most important three words that you can say. Telling someone that you truly love them satisfies a person's deepest emotional needs. The need to belong, to feel appreciated and to be wanted.Your spouse, your children, your friends and you, all need to hear those three little words "I love you."...

And So It Ends...

Storm clouds have gathered to blow away the pain,
The sorrow, the hurt washed away with the rain,
The occasional flash, the roaring thunder,
Bring back memories that take me down under.

Oh how I dream't that it would last a life time,
Now I laugh and say it was - once upon a time.

Now I cry alone under the shadow of this rainy sky,
Holding onto the memories till the day that I die,
Never before did it feel so cold on a rainy night,
Never before did it feel love is a worthless fight.

Oh how I dream't of a lifetime with you,
Now I'm sure dreams are seldom true.

I loved you true but may be it wasn't enough,
You wanted to break free, why is life this tough,
Used to think that life has given me the very best,
But I had forgotten it isn't easy to pass this test.

Oh how I dream't that I'd be with you forever,
Now I'm lost in the cloudy sky, I'm lost forever.

What i fool I must have been to fall in love with you,
Fool I was to ever have trusted you true,
Now I am counting down my lonely night and day,
Heart it dies, mind it screams, death is the only way.

Someday soon my eyes will shut, this breath will stop ?
I'll be gone so faraway, but will this pain ever stop ?
