Life: The Five Love Languages

Was talking with a guy buddy of mine who got married earlier this year. We hadn't had an extended conversation in a while so it was good to catch up. One topic we got onto was his experience with The Five Love Languages a renown marriage book that was a NYT bestseller.

The idea is simple: we all have different ways of expressing love and different ways we receive it.

The author identifies and describes these five languages: Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch.

These concepts can be applied to any type of relationship but of course it is most profoundly important the context of marriage.
