\n\u201cAt the end of life, our questions are very simple: Did I live fully? Did I love well?\u201d ~Jack Kornfield<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hi everyone – it is me Darla and today is my wedding anniversary and I am blessed to have the most wonderful man as my husband. We met in 1999 through an online dating site and in less than one month, he told me that I was going to be his wife. Of course, I clearly thought he was slightly crazy but I am glad that he ignored my rolling eyes and looks of disbelief and made it his mission to convince me of his intentions. Fast forward to now and our life is much more hectic than it was back then. We both work full time, have very active daughters and volunteer at their schools or cart them from one place to another and often, I wonder if my husband knows how much I love him. And then it got me to thinking I wonder if the people in my life know that I love them too….and if not, what steps could I take to let them know I do. So I thought it would be fun to share a list of quick ways to say “I love you” to our loved ones. So here goes the list:<\/p>\n

1. Tell the other person that you love them
\n2. Give or get a hug
\n3. Make sure the other person feels important and respected
