Another wonderful way to show that you care for someone, whether it's your parent, your sibling, or the love of your life, is to support them.
We don't mean monetarily.
We mean, that when they tell you they've decided to take a summer long painting course don't remind them of their inability to draw even a straight line, but tell them you would love one of their masterpieces to hang in your house. When they tell you that they've decided to backpack around the world, don't remind them of their fear of bugs, dirt, and airplanes...buy them a world atlas and a new sleeping bag.
In short, nothing says "I Love You" quite like showing support for something that is important to your loved one, and being their biggest cheerleader.
Believe us, they will eventually remember they are totally color blind or why the closest to camping they've come is at a Hilton...and they will appreciate the fact that you love them even more for it.
This is an excellent idea and it is so important. It is something that I think many people forget to do on a regular basis to their loved ones. People spend too much time pointing out others flaws and not enough time supporting them in the important things in their lives.
