20 Things We Should Say More Often

So I came across this YouTube video today Kid President's 20 Things We Should Say More Often and I absolutely loved it! I'm not sure if these are his thoughts and ideas or if is just the deliverer, but either way his message was well received! At the end of his video he asked for viewers to share what they think people should say more often. There was one thing that instantly came to my mind. Before I share that with you, watch his video and/or read his 20 thing we should say more often below (my favorites are bolded).



20. Thank you.
19. Excuse me.
18. Here's a surprise corndog I bought you because you're my friend.
17. I'm sorry.
16. I forgive you.
15. You can do it!
14. "I've got barbecue sauce on my shirt too."
13. Please.
12. Everything is going to be ok.
11. Aw! You got me a corndog too?! You shouldn't have buddy.
10. I don't know.
9. You're so awesome…. 
8. Here's a high-five! 
7. My sports team isn't always the best sports team.
6. *Nothing* 
5. *Fart sound*
4. I disagree with you, but I still like you as a person who is a human being and I will treat you like that because if i didn't it would make everything bad and that's what lots of people do and it is lame
3. AHHHHHHH!
2. Life is tough, but so are you.
1. Something nice!

Despite my dislike for corndogs (I recommend replacing with cookies!) I agree with all of these. Words are so powerful! Sometimes we get so caught up in our day-to-day activities that we forget to stop and simply say thank you. Other times, we say hurtful things when we would have been better of saying nothing at all. 

One veryyyyyyyy important thing I believe we should say more often is... 

I love you.

Let the people you love know how you feel about them. Say is often. Say it during good times and during hard times. Most importantly, show it, make sure it is felt, because words without actions are meaningless
