   To love and to know that we are loved is the greatest happiness of existence.And happiness seems to be something that is in short supply for too many of us!My friend reminded me that it is never enough just to love; we must also express it.What good are our affectionate feelings toward others if we don't find ways to let them know?

 去爱、知道自己被爱着是存在的最伟大幸福。幸福似乎就是供不应求的某种东西！我的朋友提醒我：光有爱是绝对不够的。 我们还得表达出来。如果没有办法让他们知道，那么我们对他们怀有一腔爱意又有什么用呢？

affectionate adj 关爱的，亲昵的。

   我们每一个人都需要爱，也想知道自己是否被别人爱着、关注着，当有人走进我的课堂，我不禁肃然起敬，如果无人光顾，就感觉自己被遗忘了，做为教师，我们要表达对学生的欣赏，对每一位学生的关注，这些我们一定要说出来，而且是发自内心的。
