I look into the darkness and I see you. What a simple yet beautiful phrase. Many of us say I love you. It is one of the easiest things to say to someone. Thrown around without a second thought. How romantic it would be just for someone to look at you and smile saying " I see you". That to me seems like such a more complete statement. After all when we do fall in love with someone isn't that truly what we are saying? I see you for all that you are. I see you for all that you were. I see you for all that you will become.

I find that in some cultures certain phrases that we as Americans over look mean so much or they have multiple meanings. We are a general society. We speak in broad generalizations. We say so much but we never say what we truly mean. Bouncing around conversations with the intention of speaking our mind and then trying to avoid it so that we don't take risks or hurt someone Else's feelings. I do like most of us want someone to tell me that they love me. It is beautiful and one of the things that we all need to hear in our life. But when I am loved in a romantic way I want the first time she tells me how she feels to be that very intimate and personal phrase to be " I see you." We should focus on what we say to others and how we say it.
