Slow down for three minutes to read this. It is worth it.
Touching words from the mouths of babes. What does Love mean?
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."

cologne and they go out and smell each other."

sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK."

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.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=115355

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"

Wow I even got chills on the last paragraph. Great thread. Seems like kids know more about love then most adults because they're not yet tarnished by the world.

Yep the old Art Linkletter Show. I used to watch that on an old B/W tube when Mom would let me stay home on a "sick" day.

I don't know if this translates well to those who are unfamiliar w/ the job descriptions and duties within the entertainment industry but this is a true story. During an elepahant act on the Art Linkletter Show, one of the elephants left a pile on the stage. The curtain closed and the Stage Manager yelled out "Props! Somebody get over here and clean up this mess!" The props guy walked over, looked at it, and said, "Not my job. I can still see steam. If there's steam on it, it belongs to the effects department."
It seems, in many ways, that one of life's ironies is, that the closer a person gets towards the end, the more they begin acting the way they did, when it was close to the beginning. There seems to be a common bond- almost an empathy- between young children and the aged.

It's all of those in between years that get to us.
