DON'T SAY, DODo not say things You think I want to hear. Instead, Say what you sincerely mean, And really intend to do. Do not think you are helping me By occasionally Being here or there, If you really have no intention Of holding my hand All the way through. Do not say you care for me, If you do not care Whenever I'm clearly Down and blue. And do not want what's best For you, If you do not wish the best For me too. Do not calculate gifts or deeds Or your giving will never feel Genuinely true. Just say what you mean And mean what you say, And let's lay these down — As our love's Golden rules. . Suzy Kassem
About This Quote

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. Compassion is a noble quality that should be nurtured and encouraged. As love grows, it should grow with compassion. When you're feeling down and blue, remember to be kind to yourself and others.

Remember to give as much as you take from those around you. Don't say or do things you think I want to hear. Instead, say what you sincerely mean, and genuinely intend to do.

Do not think you are helping me by occasionally being here or there whenever you don't really have any intention of holding my hand all the way through.
