Curiosity Over Fear

Love Doesn’t Always Sound Like ‘I Love You’ (Mother’s Day Episode)


Listen Later

Have you ever realized someone’s been saying “I love you” your whole life… just not with words?

In this special Mother’s Day episode, I share a beautifully written story by my sister, Therese Joan, that captures the quiet, everyday ways love shows up—especially in Filipino families. Not through hugs or “I love yous,” but through food, patience, and a plate of hotdogs and rice you didn’t ask for (but were definitely expected to eat).

This one’s for anyone who’s ever been cared for in ways that didn’t look like love at the time—but were. If you’ve ever had a mom, grandma, or caregiver who showed love through acts, not affection, this story will bring them right back into the room with you.

It’s funny. It’s tender. And it might just change how you see love—especially the kind that doesn’t say its name out loud.
