Apple a Day

“Everything will be all right.”

Hearing these words during a crisis, and believing them, lifts a heavy stone from your shoulders. Similarly when you feel blue, like you’re not living up to your potential, you want to hug the friend who says, “I believe in you.”

Words have the power to heal. Every person on the planet has the power to work magic with three little words. If we’re lucky, we grow up hearing them. “I love you.”

It’s not always possible to work a miracle during a crisis, so we sometimes can’t give the assurance that’s being waited for desperately. And when people let us down, it can be a stretch to express confidence in them. But one thing that’s unconditional is true love. You can express it to a special person in your life and lift his spirits in seconds.

It’s a beautiful thing.
