I once said, “It is not the words that you say but the energy you place in the words. The tone of your voice and the love you feel as you say or do anything matters.” For example, you could read the New York Times to a baby lovingly, and the child would respond to the love. My father seldom said, “I love you,” but all he had to do was look at me, and I knew.
