Slow down for three minutes to read this. A group of professionals
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:

her toenails anymore.

got arthritis too. That's love."

"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of

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. The winner was a four year old
child whose next door neighbour 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 neighbour, the little
boy said,
"Nothing, I just helped him cry"
