I Love You: The Most Important Words

We all know how important the words "I Love You" are, but are they really the most important words in the world? In a world where hundreds of languages and endless billions of phrases have been spoken over our thousands of years of recorded history, could three short words like I Love You really exist as most important, consequential phrase ever spoken?

There's no doubt that for certain individuals throughout history, I Love You did not end up being the most important words they ever heard. But for our culture and society as a whole, and where all of history is concerned, it's arguable that I Love You (and all of its equivalents in other languages) are indeed the most important words in the world.

Love in its many different forms has undoubtedly been the driving force behind much of the world's progress, wars, and monumental developments. Whether it is love of country, love of self, or the desired love of another, the words "I Love You" have played a much larger role in the development of humanity than the history books suggest.

While there are specific recorded examples of romantic love changing the course of history (think of the face that "launched a thousand ships," for example), love almost certainly exists as the influence behind many other significant events in history. While mankind's need for power is often blamed for many wars and innovations, the need to defend something we love or earn the love of another is undoubtedly a strong influence in these events, as well.

Few words have the power and life-changing influence as I Love You, even for the vast majority of us who have no influence on the world stage, politics or international disputes. For the rich and famous as well as the average person, I Love You carries a huge weight both physically and psychologically. Everyone wants to be loved, regardless of whether they admit it or not, and hearing the words I Love You is a huge comfort to every person in the world.

So, are the words I Love You the most important words in the world? Ask yourself, is I Love You really the most important phrase in the world for you personally, as well? If they are, then you might be able to create the type of romantic relationship that goes down in history. If not, then you might not be ready yet; but that's not to say that you won't be someday in the future.

Above all else, romance is patient. Never rush into anything, and if it doesn't feel like the time to say those special three words, then love may just have to wait a while!
