I was tired and hungry after a long day of work. When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked up at me and said, “I  31   you.” I did not know  32  to say, and I just stood there, looking  33  at him. My first thought was that he must need help with his homework. Then I asked, “What was that all about ?” “Nothing,” he said, “My teacher said we should tell our parents we love them and see what they say.”

The next day I called his teacher to  34  more about what my son said and how the other parents had reacted﹡. “Most of the fathers had the  35  response﹡ as you did,” the teacher said, ”When I first suggested ﹡that we try this, I asked the children what they thought their parents would say. Some of them thought their parents would be surprised.”

Then the teacher explained , “ I want my students to know that feeling love is an important part of  36  . I’m trying to tell them it’s too bad that we don’t express﹡ our feelings. A boy  37 tell his parents he loves them.” The teacher understands that sometimes it is  38  for some of us to say something .

That evening when my son came to me, I took him in my arms and held on for a while, saying, “Hey, I love you,  39  .” I don’t know if saying that made either of us healthier,   40   I did feel pretty good.

Dear friends,
Do you remember your first day at a new school or in a new area? How about the  31   when your family    32   to a new state? Ugh! What about the feelings of being a stranger?
Then, with time, you find someone who likes  33  you like.  Friends are great gifts in life. I have good friends too,  but not because they are completely(完全的)   34 .Sometimes they talk too much; sometimes they need me a lot. I know I ask too much of them. I hope my friends, like my father,   35  about me a lot.
I once told my friends to give me all their love and be generous and gentle. I told my friends, in other words, to love me    36  I loved them.
They didn’t   37  me at first, but then they became kinder. My love for them slowly made them learn to  38  friends. They learned to love others and   39   the idea that LOVE is part of life.
If we listen to and try to understand each other, love    40   .We should work on it, even if it’s hard at first. A true friend loves US at all times.
Your friend,
Jesus

Dear friends,

    Do you remember your first day at a new school or in a new area? How about the  31   when your family    32    to a new state? Ugh! What about the feelings of being a stranger?

    Then, with time, you find someone who likes  33  you like.  Friends are great gifts in life. I have good friends too,  but not because they are completely(完全的)   34  .Sometimes they talk too much; sometimes they need me a lot. I know I ask too much of them. I hope my friends, like my father,   35   about me a lot.

    I once told my friends to give me all their love and be generous and gentle. I told my friends, in other words, to love me    36   I loved them.

    They didn't   37  me at first, but then they became kinder. My love for them slowly made them learn to  38   friends. They learned to love others and   39   the idea that LOVE is part of life.

    If we listen to and try to understand each other, love    40   .We should work on it, even if it's hard at first. A true friend loves US at all times.

Your friend,

Jesus
