Do actions speak louder than words?

We have been talking about that, and now it is your turn to write something about it.Think of a personal in your social network; it can be a family member, friend, colleague, and or someone else, and write a 250-word letter to him/her explaining your understanding of the saying Actions speak louder than words. Give a reason(s) why you chose this person to tell him/her that; remember to add an example to clarify your opinion.

Dear Marah

I missed you very much. I can’t forget your attitude when my daughter was sick. You made a lot. I was surprised when I received an email from one of the most famous doctor in Lebanon. You booked an appointment for my daughter to meet him after 3 days.

You picked us up in your car, driving for more than 1 hour until we arrived. We waited for a long time in the clinic. The doctor told us that my daughter’s health is good, but she has to take two medicines. After that we felt

comfortable, and we went to take some food. It was a long hard day.

 Now, I have an absolute conviction that actions speak louder than words. Sometimes you need to hear a kind words until you feel comfortable and trust towards the people, but in hard time actions will be more effective than words.

I wish you a nice time with your lovely family. They have a great role- model, their mother. I expect your kids will be as same as you :loyal, sympathetic, and lovely.

Hope see you soon

All the best
