I
was reading an article this morning about the 5 Languages of Love which
is a simple breakout of how differently we all express our love to each
other. I'd like to share that with you this morning because as everyone
checks in here on this guestbook or even offers love to you in &
outside the hospital, I do see how you are receiving love in those
different ways. Each language is important and equal to the others.
Quality time:
For someone who speaks this language, things like eye contact, deep and
meaningful conversations and shared activities are needed to feel
loved. Bonding time with others in their life is what is most important
to them.
Receiving gifts:
When you are in a relationship or friendship with someone who loves
little gifts and surprises, this is precisely what you will get. You
will constantly be showered with new clothes, flowers or even
chocolates. Giving the gift of self is also an important symbol of love
to these people.
Words of affection:
This works by giving the other constant compliments, sweet love notes,
or cards showing affection and caring, with lots of encouragement. This
is important because those who speak this language are sensitive people
and don't take criticism as well as others.
Physical touch: If this is the language of choice, this person will be very affectionate or, as some like to call it, touchy-feely. Hugging is important to them.
Acts of service:
Some people find pleasure in doing things for others. This may mean
that they will also feel loved when their partners (either in the home,
the office, for special tasks or projects) help out with chores or doing
things for them.
Like the Beatles sing: All you need is love, love, love
and of course, healing!
Be happy in small ways today dear Niece & Nephew-in-law. Sending you my love!
