When I hear those words sung, I am immediately transported back in time. I am young… and in love for the first time. There seems to be no possible way to express the feeling I’m experiencing. I want to shout it to the mountaintops, but I can’t find the words. So I paint a picture, or sing a song, or make a sculpture in hopes that someone will be able to translate my meaning and understand the depth of emotion there.

There are many ways to say “I love you.” There are many ways to demonstrate “I’m sorry.” There is no end to the number of ways we communicate our joys and our pains.

If the people who need to know aren’t able to hear or understand…try another way of getting the word out.
