Every day we utter an array of words,
"Thank you", "Sorry", "You're Welcome" or "Be careful"
But how many of these words do we actually mean
in the way that people understand them?
"Thank you" for a thousand things.
"You're welcome" for a million things.
"Sorry" for a trillion things.
"Be careful" of everything.
The next time we utter these words to somebody,
let's specify what we mean and specially specify our love in them,
because this is what they have left,
when death knocks on our doors and gets away with theft.

Inspired by a book. "I See You" by Clare Mackintosh. Funny how the inspiration for the thing I love most in the world comes from another which is second best to none. Reading is the inhale and writing - the exhale.
