Normalize telling your friends that you love them. There's nothing shameful about expressing that sentiment. In fact, the world would be a lot better if this was normalized.
@ReneeVoiceBrand @PaganMother 18:52 is where YouTube flagged it ... but I have found that on the web vs on the app is very different. All that aside, that was exactly why I shared about always saying "I love you". The evening my father died, we had a fight and my last words to him were a 15 year old's spite and meanness. I took the same vow as the woman in the video.
@wolfwoman💔 Be kind to yourself and remember the good times.
@PaganMother
@PaganMother ITA I try to say it all the time.
Yes! We need to stop treating the word "love" as this extremely reserved thing that rom-com plots revolve around.
We should all express the various forms of love as freely as we want -- and love of a friend is real, valid, and should be expressed a lot!
I got love for all of you renegade eccentrics.
@PaganMother Some friends have been startled when I say it on parting. Most have gotten used to it ;) In my extended family, it is absolutely done, all the time. My father died suddenly just before I turned 16. So everyone in my circle knows that "you may never get to say it so never let the chance pass".
@PaganMother
This video for me surpasses anything I've seen or experienced. At 19:08 is transformative:
