5 Love Laguages

This is yet another wonderful book written by Gary Chapman who is internationally known and respected as a marriage and family life therapist for over 40 years. This book unveils the way people communicate among each other through five love languages. Having the knowledge of these five love languages will directly affect your relationship with your spouse.

I, personally, have been inspired, motivated, and propelled to a new and sophisticated way of observing the way people commence among themselves and know have a solid foundation on how to communicate with my future spouse.

The Five Love Languages is a marvelous book that is written with the aspiration to not only inform newly weds, about love, but people that pursue to acquire the knowledge of love.

I too fall into this category of young people who seek the knowledge of love. Our goal? So we can better know what love is and what how we can grow in it. As already mentioned, Gary talks about five love languages, they are as follows: Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Gifts,

Acts of Service, and Physical Touch. Words of affirmation are just basic words that uplifts ones self image and confidence, i.e. you look beautiful, good job, etc. Quality time is basically doing various activates with your spouse, like jogging, hiking, cooking. Gifts is the easiest love language because all you do is give a present to your spouse. This does not always mean you have to buy something, one can just make something or anything will do. Acts of service is probably the more difficult one because we often get

lazy. This basically means helping your spouse do things, like clean the house, help cook, do work related projects. And finally the most popular, physical touch. This does not always mean in an intimate way it also means just any soft loving touch by ones spouse. It can be a pat on the back or just a massage or caressing of the face.

I personally have learned how to better communicate with people, after reading this book. I see that I have made many careless mistakes by not knowing about these love languages. Dr. Chapman talks about a love tank that every person has, and in order for a person to function normally there love tank needs to be full. I see now the importance of having a full love tank and with this knowledge that I now posses I can keep the love tanks, of my future wife and kids, full.
