Guest guest Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Out of the mouths of children... A group of children, aged four through eight, were asked to answer the question: " What does love mean? " Some of the answers are amusing. Some are rather earthy. Others show a wisdom far beyond their years. Some of the answers were: Love is that first feeling you feel before all the bad stuff gets in the way. When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toe nails any more. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love. When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You know that your name is safe in their mouth. Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other. Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your french fries without making them give you any of theirs. Love is when someone hurts you. And you get so mad but you don't yell at them because you know it would hurt their feelings. Love is what makes you smile when you're tired. Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is okay. Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My mommy and daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen. If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate. Love is hugging. Love is kissing. Love is saying no. When you tell someone something bad about yourself and you're scared they won't love you any more. But then you get surprised because not only do they still love you, they love you even more. There are two kinds of love: Our love. God's love. But God makes both kinds of them. Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it every day. Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well. During my piano recital, I was on a stage and scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared any- more. My mommy loves me more than anybody. You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night. Love is when mommy gives daddy the best piece of chicken. Love is when mommy sees daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford. Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day. I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones. I let my big sister pick on me because my Mom says she only picks on me because she loves me. So I pick on my baby sister because I love her. Love cards like Valentine's cards say stuff on them that we'd like to say ourselves, but we wouldn't be caught dead saying. When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you. Love is when mommy sees daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think it's gross. You really shouldn't say I love you unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Ohhhhh, thank you for posting this, Dhyana!! I've seen some of them before, but most of them I haven't. They touch me deeply and make me tear up, then they make me laugh through my tears! I think my favorite is this one: 'When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You know that your name is safe in their mouth.' But the one about what you hear in the room on Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen is a close second!! Thank you for sharing that today, I needed it! Blessings & love, Claudia novalees <Novalees wrote: Out of the mouths of children...

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 I always felt that, love is when you want to share your ice cream with somebody, because that way it tastes better , " novalees " <Novalees wrote: > > Out of the mouths of children... > > A group of children, aged four through eight, > were asked to answer the question: " What does > love mean?
