“Let him cry”
What Love means to a 4-8 year old
A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, ’What does love mean?’ The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined
See what you think:
‘When my grandmother got arthritis , she couldn’t bend over and paint her toenails anymore.. So my grandfather does it for her all the time , even when his hands got arthritis too. That’s love.’ – Rebecca, age 8
‘When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.’ – Billy, age 4
‘Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.’ – Karl, age 5
‘Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs.’ –Chrissy, age 6
‘Love is what makes you smile when you’re tired.’ -Terri, age 4
‘Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him , to make sure the taste is OK.’ – Danny, age 7
‘Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing , you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that.
They look gross when they kiss’ – Emily, age 8
‘Love is what’s in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents
and listen.’ –Bobby, age 7
‘If you want to learn to love better , you should start with a friend who you hate” –Nikka, age 6
‘Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt , then he wears it everyday..’ –Noelle, age 7
‘Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well.’ –Tommy, age 6
‘During my piano recital , I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn’t scared anymore.’ – Cindy, age 8
‘My mommy loves me more than anybody. You don’t see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night.’ –Clare, age 6
‘Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken.’ –Elaine, age 5
‘Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford.’ –Chris, age 7
‘Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day.’ -Mary Ann, age 4
‘I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones.’ –Lauren, age 4
‘When you love somebody , your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you.’ - Karen, age 7
‘Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn’t think it’s gross..’ –Mark, age 6
‘You really shouldn’t say ‘I love you’ unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget.’ –Jessica, age 8
And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge.
The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.
The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman’s yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there. When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said, ‘Nothing , I just helped him cry’.
(So now, what love means to you? May you post your own answers here? If you have a kid, ask him/her and post his/her answer here too. Thanks!)

mommy i love you daddy i hate you 在 Banana egg 雞蛋香蕉 Facebook 的精選貼文
A letter to our kid... 給我們孩子的一封信.
給我的寶貝:
My baby:
我一直想要寫這封信給你,但是就是拿不定主意要跟你說些什麽好。
I’ve been wanting to write you this letter for quite some time now, but I just couldn’t seem to settle down on what to talk to you about.
我想要跟你介紹這個世界長什麽樣子,想說在你來之前先提醒你幾件事情,也希望教你如何透過音樂和藝術來表達你的情感,就跟爸爸一樣。
I wanted to introduce what this world is like to you, and let you know a couple things to watch out for before you come in. I also wanted to teach you how to express yourself through art and music? Just like daddy.
對了,媽咪要我跟你說,不管未來其他的人怎麼講,你永遠是獨一無二的。
By the way, mommy wanted me to affirm you that you’re unique and wonderful in your own way, doesn’t matter what someone else might say later on in your life.
我們也等不及要跟你分享一大堆好玩的故事,好讓你可以稍微想像一下這個世界有多精彩,我相信你一定會跟爸爸媽媽一樣很享受這個地方的。
We have so many crazy stories of ours that we can’t wait to share with you, so that you can get a glimpse of the richness of this world. I’m sure you will enjoy it as much as we do.
但是,如果我只能教導你一件事,我要你記得去“愛”。
However, if I was to pick only one thing to pass on to you. I want you to remember to “love”.
首先,全心全意的愛神。
因為你從其他人身上接受到的愛永遠比不上神的愛,祂想要陪你度過生命的每一秒鐘,帶領你度過所有的酸甜苦辣,祂非常的愛你,所以要將回應上帝的愛視為你生命中最重要的事。
First of all, love God with all your heart.
Because no one’s love will ever compare with the love you receive from Him. He wants to spend with you every second of your life, and guide you through all the ups and downs. He loves you so much.
So make up your mind to love Him back as the priority of your life.
再來,愛人。
每個人都需要被愛,當你接受了神的愛,你就有責任把這光照耀在其他人的身上,因為你的愛有能力改變一個人的生命。也不要忘記愛那些恨你的人,因為戰勝敵人最好的方式就是把他們都變成你的朋友。
Then, love people.
Everyone needs to be loved. As you receive the love from God, you have the responsibility to pass on the light to others, because your love has the ability to change someone’s world.
And don’t forget to love those who hate you too, because the best way to conquer your enemies is to turn them into your friends.
最後,愛自己。
你沒有辦法討所有人的喜歡,所以不要爲了其他人改變自己。活出上帝創造給你的角色。記得要愛自己,相信自己。
Lastly, love yourself.
You can never please everyone, so don’t try to change yourself for others. Be the person who God created you to be. Remember to love and believe in yourself.
歡迎來到這個世界,幾個月後見了。
Welcome to the world kid. See you in a few months.
愛你的
爸爸媽媽
Much love
Daddy and Mommy
