Heart-warming words!

There are a few, so small sentences, that makes you feel like hugging the person who uttered them, makes your heart feel the warmth and the love of each word. Small phrases that give you motivation, inspiration, strength to go on, affirmation, respect, support. They will ring a bell to the parents of this blog, as I believe they say these words to their kids all the time!

Now it's time to think twice and use them in our everyday life, with the people we love and cherish the most. Believe me, the moment these phrases go out of your mouth, you will be the first one to feel all the above; sit back and watch your life getting better and your relationships reach their zenith!!

1) "I love you. And nothing will change that, no matter what you do."
Yes, you won't use it with every person in your life, only with your special ones. Make sure these special ones are not just your spouse or your kids. Use it with your friends, your parents if you still have them around, with your colleagues, with your students! Feel each and every word you say by looking in the eye and be the first one to feel the waves of warmth embrace you! Feel the love we learnt to forget somewhere out there and bring back bliss in your life!!

2) "You are amazing! There is no one like you. No one!"
Because this is simply the truth! Every one is unique, each and every one of us is one and only! Just imagine how you feel when you manage to accomplish something you work on for a long time, or when you reach your goals! How does that feel? Say these words to your mirror and take notice of your eyes! Use them with your children, your parents, your hubbie! If this isn't the support and motivation we are talking about, then what?

3) " It's all right to cry. People cry for a number of reasons: because they are hurt, sad, glad, or worried; when they are angry, afraid, or lonely. Big people cry too. I do."
Crying is the remedy for many situations. It reliefs you, takes away the tension, expresses your inner and more sensitive self, it makes you seem as human as everyone, it connects you with your long-forgoten child inside you. Feel free to cry, encourage others to cry on your shoulder and then together hold your heads up again, stonger than life!

4) "You've made a mistake - it's OK. People make mistakes. I do. Is it something we can fix?"
So many mistakes and so many lessons to be learnt... But this is only human! It's alright to make a mistake, its alright to make an unsuccessful decision. It takes guts to admit them, it takes guts to notice them, it takes guts to start all over again. A mistake, when not fatal, is a second chance, it's another opportunity you have to fix it and learn from it. No one should feel guilty about it - on the contrary, feel proud of yourself and do your best to amend things!

5) "You did the right thing! Though not easy, you did it. I am proud of you; you should be too!"
Countless the times when we had to make a decision and still in doubt if we did the right thing. We all need a friend to reassure us, to tell us we are right. Be the one for yourself, be the one for your friends and beloved. Deciding is always a challenge: small for some, big for others - it doesn't matter. What really matters is the "you did the right thing" you tell yourself/family/friends. This is the meaning of support!

6) "I am sorry. I didn't mean it."
Hardest words ever! You have to forget about your selfishness, your unreasonable pride, admit your mistakes and show the beauty of your heart! Sounds easy? Have a go! If you find it difficult to try it with your closests, try it with strangers: say "I'm sorry" when you accidentaly push someone in the super market or in the queue at the cinema. See their tiny smile and then go for bigger smiles inside your house. Most of all, you feel better first - and this is the goal here. If you feel good, everyone around you feels better!

7)"What a great idea! How did you come up with it? Tell me more!"
Be honest with yourself and tell me how many times you were really there when your spouse explains you a new idea of theirs? How many time you were really listening to a friend and not thinking about a similar situation of yours? Try to be a listening ear, show your deep interest and make the speaker in front of you feel important! If they are important for you once, you will be important for them twice!! Have in mind: respect and interest!

8) "When you need a friend, I'll be there for you."
Such a comforting sentence! So heart-warmimg! And don't take it for granted: not many have real friends ready to spend their entire night listening to that sobbing and crying. Not many have people around them to truly care about their feelings. If you are one of the not many, then you are so blessed! Feel the blessing inside you and if you remember one or two occasions when you were not exactly the real friend, be the one! Remember: what goes around, comes around!

9) "I missed you! I think about you when we are not together!"
OMG! Just imagine you hear these words often from beloved lips! How do you feel? Isn't that touches your most sensitive part of your soul? Someone missed you and thinks about you! You mean so much to them! Give that same pleasure to your surroundings! Tell your spouse you missed them after their 9-5 daily work! Tell your parents you missed them and you call them just because! Tell your brother/sister/niece/nephew you missed them and you wanted to make sure they are ok. Be ready for their response, 'cause you're about to have an emotional one - I bet!

10)"Please / Thank you."
Needless to say anything here. If you should choose only 2 words, go for them and only them. They contain all the affection, love, bliss, forgiveness, respect, motivation, appreciation you could posible give and take. Wanna try?

Ten sentences, ten phrases that we should all use in our daily life and yet I'm not sure we do!! Since it's time to re-connect with our inner self, with our spirituality and positiveness, shall we try? The outcomes could only be healing for us first and for the rest of the world in due time!!
