Actions speak louder than words

I show my family that I appreciate them by not preaching bible verses that have nothing to do with the topic on hand. Seriously LordsSword, I don't mean to start anything here, but how are those in context in any sense? If I could find my bible, I'd be able to give 3 or 4 verses of my own that would actually pertain to this.

Anyhow.

My mom deserves tons of appreciation and I do what I can to show it. Anytime I'm over during the winter, I shovel her driveway. Right down to the pavement. You'd think it was summer time her driveway gets so clean. I always help out when I'm home. Clean up a bit, help move heavy stuff around. Simple little things. Things my siblings are too arsed to do. When it comes to friends? I tend to be pretty generous. My thoughts are that if I'm generous to them, they'll understand that I actually appreciate them as a friend.

For a future girlfriend(as well as past ones), I tend to be the sappy romantic. Cheezy jokes and lots of flowers. Not too much though obviously because then it just gets creepy. Being on time and fulfilling commitments tends to show appreciation as well.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
