You don't have to say I LOVE YOU to relay your love for someone. If someone you are very close to , someone you've been with a long time, someone you've been through a great deal with, it is likely they know how loved they are. Without even saying the words, it is likely you are already there, the love is greatly felt. I am grateful however to be able to say it out loud, just because. I'm an emotional being and if I bottle things up it will only come out in an emotional mess....amid tears.
My heart swells up at times in saying "I love you", because I know even saying the words cannot fully convey just how deeply I care for the people I am saying it to. Each person I share those words with may be loved in a different context, but each one will know they are greatly thought of and cared for. Even if you've never uttered those words before, your loved ones will feel and know your love through your actions, moments shared, smiles shared and simply through understanding between you. It's never too late to say I LOVE YOU, so if you feel the desire to, just DO IT. It's a similar thing to hugging and I make no apologies, but only if you wish...I'm that person too!
