a feeling to smile,something i prolonged was my trial a small lift a gesture?o try lift a frown,i am that who is up as upside down,im unsure was that of who i am ,i would rather be quantity ,o than being whole to be,im sadly misktaken meaning of me i even put forth before me bothersome bees,they do affect me like a snezze never on my knees i stare like in limbo past u worthy not symbols of hate and you fingers i take as you point and tattle tale im that wich whales you like a belt u welt or felt

"it doesn't mean I love you" That one symbol doesn't mean the 3 words "I love you", but it does mean the whole phrase. ASL is different from English so you can't translate it word for word. Were the ASL inventors fooled? Maybe, but by making false claims like it doesn't mean "I love you" you are only giving me reason to ignore the rest of your claims. If people can be fooled into taking paths that lead to evil then I should get off the one you are on. Thanks for the subtle warning.
