Have you ever walked the same route to work every day and then one day noticed a tree you never knew was there? Or your driving the same old road twice a day for months, then suddenly you notice a building that stands out from the rest? It happens with people too, like for example you could be working with a colleauge for a long time then out of the blue you see them in a different light. You see a part of them you never knew they had, or you find you have something in common that was hidden all that time. It can also work in the reverse as well, for example you can live with a person for years, then find out one day that you dont even like them. Or you notice a bad side of them that you thought they never had after all that time. We tend to take people for granted once we have been around them for a while, we stop buying that single rose on the way home from work. Or we go for days on end and never tell your partener that you love them.

If for example some one you were really close to had an accident or died, you would feel guilty for not telling them your true feelings before you lost them. You would wrack your brain trying to remember the last time you really showed them you cared.You would have to live with that guilt for a long time, and yet it would have so much simpler to tell them when they were alive.

You can be sitting in one evening watching T.V. then your eyes would catch your partener, and you will notice something you never saw before. Or you will get that shudder down your spine of contentment and love, thats the time you should put your feelings into action, go and give your partener a hug, and tell them you love them. OK you might feel a bit silly, especially after all these years, but at least you will have shared that magic moment that no one can take away. It will be a lasting memory that will stay with you for years to come, and at the very least you showed your feelings when it counted! It never cost you much, and no one saw you yet that little cuddle can make so much difference in the way you feel.

Its like being out together shopping or what ever and you reach out to hold hands while you cross the road, your showing concern for your parteners safety. At the same time your telling the world that what you have is special and your not ashamed to show it. Why is it us humans are really good at showing anger and hatered towards each other, when it is easier to show love?
