Regrets. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to live a life of minimal regrets?
Often, the regrets are about the “not’s”, not verbalizing our feelings to those most important in our lives. We may stay silent out of fear, which often gets our tongue (beating out the cat). We may be afraid that our feelings aren’t reciprocated. Or, we may be afraid to show emotion. We may be afraid we won’t say the right thing.
When it comes from the heart, it’s always right. And, it’s about the giving, rather than the receiving. Your ability to express yourself is the true gift. Let the words on your lips truly reflect the love in your heart.
This week, say it. Tell family members and friends what they mean to you. Tell your care recipient how much you’ve learned from him or her. Be the one who does it, who turns intangible feelings into tangible.
Say it. Because you deserve a life full of love, not regrets.

You’re article “Say It” is so very true. I started this practice some time ago with my Father. Every time he does something that just touches my heart, and believe me he does it often, I let him know. I tell him how grateful I am for this time we have together.
Imagine, at 42 years old I am fortunate enough to hear my Father wake up singing a song every single morning. Latley, as my daily duties have increased a great deal, he asks me “is there anything I can do to help?”
I tell him to just keep singing. I tell him how proud of him I am. I tell him how much I love hime every chance I get.
I just SAY IT
