Five Love Languages

in #life7 years ago

Hello everyone,

I am no 'Love Guru', I'm just writing to commemorate the upcoming valentines day! Lols...
In this era where we are very much influenced by the modern dating culture where ghosting, breadcrumbing, almost relationship has became a trend. I am not a fan of any of this dating culture.

So today I would like to share the excerpt from the book written by Dr Gary Chapman, he is an international bestseller who brought Love into a different perspective. Well, at least for me. He helped me to understand more about Love in a bigger context. I bought this book years ago and I highly recommend this book for everybody. No matter you are in relationship or not. The book still will give a new insight on how you may handle your relationship better.

Based on Dr Gary Chapman, any couples who understands each other's love language hold a priceless advantage in the quest for love that lasts for lifetime. they know how to effectively and consistently make each other feel truly and deeply loved. That gift will never fade away.

This book also emphasized on the importance to ensure the love tank of your significant other is NOT empty. By understanding the love language of your partner, it will make your life easier... hahahha...

The euphoric experience of falling in love do not stay in that stage forever. It will evolve with TIME and believe me nothing lasts forever. That euphoric feeling will not ensure that your relationship stays forever. Love needs to be nurtured and cherished. It means lots of work need to be done. You cannot expect a tree to grow by itself, it needs sunlight, oxygen, fertilizer and care to grow beautifully. Enough said, you guys knew better than me.

You might wonder what is so special about this book. Actually, I came to know about this book via a business connection way back in Kuala Lumpur. At the beginning, I wonder why these people are recommending this book to me instead of a normal business related material? A close friend of mine shared with me that she nearly came to an edge of wanting to end their beautiful marriage just because she did not feel LOVED. When she confronted her husband, he highlighted that he made sure that the house remained clean, breakfast served and took their daughter from school without fail. With this book, they realize that both of them are speaking a different LOVE languages. Act of service Vs Words of Affirmation. In the end, they pretty much improved their relationship by knowing the exact way of expressing their LOVE.

Reading this book has opened my heart and accept certain things that I cannot change, believing that every circumstance in this has its meaning. Whether it is a lesson or a blessing in disguise.

The 5 love Love languages consist:

  1. Words of affirmation
