I want to tell my father I love him so much but I know he wont hear me any more for he is already dead and cant hear the words that I have to say. Father's day is coming and I have not celebrated it with my father even when he was alive. I love him so much but never had the courage to say the words. Though I show it to him how much I care but never said it when he was alive. I hope those who still have their fathers with you would have the courage to tell you parents how much you love them; dont wait for the time that you will lose that the way I lost mine. Find the time and the courage to it out loud.

You should forget about your pride and go see your mom. I think she is badly hurt with your act. No matter what, she is still your mom and you need to respect her. Ask for her forgiveness and please don't make her cry anymore. Sometimes, I do disagree with my mom but I will quickly ask her to forgive me if I make her mad at me or if I hurt her unintentionally. As a mother, she always understand me better.

thats right, let us humble ourselves and through it we will be able to say the words they long to hear from us.

I would like to tell my friends that they're all my brothers, and they know it. Weve been together for 20 years and i hope it continues way more. I want to say my sister that she's the best even though she drives me crazy. I want to tell my parents that they rock, even though we argue now and then, but no biggie. And i wanna tell my pequena not to worry, it will never ever change.

Yes. I wanted to tell a childhood friend of mine 'I'm sorry' for hurting him. I am really so hang up on this because I knew that I hurt a very good and loyal friend of mine. I hope I could just turn back the time and somehow tell that person how I really feel.

I lost my beloved father 9 years ago. He was a good father and I am still missing him so much now. I never said directly to my father that I love him so much and how I feel so lucky to have him as my father, when he was still alive. But, both of us know so much about it. My father loved me so much as I am the youngest daughter in the family. He pampered me a lot when I was a small kid. When he passed away, I was heartbroken and sad. I felt like I lost the only good man in the world. He was a great father. That time, whenever I missed him, I will write a letter and tell him everything that happened to me, pretending that he is still alive. But after I finished writing the letter, I will cry as I know that he would not be able to read the letter. I acted like a small kid and started to sob. I did not want to be surrounded by other people and kept to myself only. It took me a few months to recover and to accept the fact that my beloved father has gone and never will come back like before. I only have my mother now. I love her so much and I want to make her happy for the rest of her life. Mother's love is so precious for me. You can't take it for granted. Love your parents when you still can.

i am already 28 years old but everyday of my life, i always tell the words "i love you" to my dad even if to some i sound cheezy. i don't care. i want to tell my dad those words for as long as he can hear me. i say i love you to my mother and brothers, too and even to my closest friends. i think actions are important than words but words are important, too. sorry to hear that you weren't able to speak those important loving words to him. but i hope he will still hear you even if he's not physically here anymore.

Thats very nice, I hope we were raised to that expressive with our feelings But I guess we were brought up with a very disciplinary environment.

Your father can hear you and see you everyday. I am sure he is looking down at you from heaven and knows that you love him dearly. He will always be in your heart and looking after you. Even though you never said you love him, he knows that you do love him. I have told my dad that I love him as well as my mother. They know that I love them just as much as they love me.

Yes, I believe our fathers are they looking down on us, maybe they have met there. Yes I know my father knows how much I love him I was not brave enough to tell him.

There was this childhoos friend of mine, a very nice and fair lady now; I'd wanted to tell her of my feelings for her but she just graduated and has left the country. The rest is history as they say but I'll never let that happen to me again.

There are many things I wanted to tell many, not something to just someone. At times I just feel I need to give them a piece of my mind but often, I will just keep quiet. What good does it do to me to tell them. I cannot see any.

sometimes, we think that words are not that important for others. but later we'll realize that words aren't just words. they are feelings waiting to be shared. it will do good for sure... for you and for them.

It would depend on you but there are words that people need to hear from us and we need to express and tell them about it. I never have the courage to tell my father I hope I did tell him.

ya, Maryannemax, I do agree it is best for all. At times, need to consider the after effects if the words are not taken well by the other party. lol.

I'm touched by your story here zelmarq :( I'm lucky i still have both parents to love. They are both special to me, i always say i love you through text but don't have the guts to tell it personally. Today i will find time to tell him how special he is to me and i love him so much. He'd been a good father to us all. Thank you for sharing this to us, i know somehow your father could hear you from where he is now if you think about him and say " love you" from the heart.God bless you.

I can totally feel you Zelmarq~! I lost my father 6 years ago. And whenever Father's Day comes, it hasn't gotten any easier to cope. I also wish that I can tell him how much he means to me and that I love him so much. Only last week, a friend of mine also lost her father to brain cancer. So I do know how she feels, especially since Father's Day is coming. To those whose fathers are still alive, you're lucky to still have you Dad and I wish you guys have a great Father's Day celebration! =)

Father can understand our love as long as we care him with a truly heart even if we never tell him how much we love him.so please don't be sad,just treasure the people around you and let them konw your love, both in form of actions and words. I sometimes have disharmony with my boyfriend, then I'll send him a message to say sorry and tell him how much I love him~then everything will be turned out right.So I believe saying out our love is necessary and I'll try to express it to my parents.Thanks for you reminding.

Say the words that you want to say and say it with all your heart. We dont like to end up bitter in the end for not being able to say what we wanted to say. Take care.

My best friend in the entire world passed away 4 years ago this October. He would have been 26 this past February. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't wish I could talk to him again. We had a bad falling out before he passed away and hadn't spoken in a year when I found out that he overdosed on Heroine. It doesn't matter how someone passed away, they still meant the world to someone and I wish more than anything that I could tell him how much he meant to me and how I should have been there for him more because I loved him and I still do.

Well when they have departed from us only our prayers could reach them. Well, in cases like this we have to move on and live the life we have to live. Its a sad realization but its what we have left and its only the only way.

Well, I am sorry about your father. I do not think that I have anything to tell anyone right now. Maybe in the future or something.
