5 TYPES OF LOVE LANGUAGES...

A very special friend of Mine, Michelle Weers asked me this question on the bus on our way to tutoring our pri sch kid last Thursday..."What do you want for your 21st Birthday this year?" I answered her that I don't expect much and in fact didn't even think of it...I just wish that my family will be blessed and that my dad's business will be good. Grandma's weak legs will be healed, getting good GPA and all is well for my beloved family and friends(: That is all I wish for my Birthday(: I know these are very simple wishes, but they really meant a lot to me(:
Weers made a few comments about it and then she shared with me this...5 TYPES OF LOVE LANGUAGES! I find it interesting so I thought of sharing them...

5 TYPES OF LOVE LANGUAGES...<3
1) Receiving Gifts
2) Acts Of Service
3)Words Of Affirmation
4) Physical Touch
5) Quality Time



While reading this, you probably will be wondering..."What is all these?" Alright, so let me tell you what is it about...

                                                    1) RECEIVING GIFTS
*It's basically expecting to receive presents,gifts from friends and families.


2) ACTS OF SERVICE
*Enjoying friend's company, doing things together. Friend's helping you with groceries for example, just a simple acts of service or action will make you appreciate them even more or so.


3) WORDS OF AFFIRMATION
*Love receiving affirmation from people around you, compliments which are pleasant to your ears(:


4) PHYSICAL TOUCH
* Love hugs from family and friends. Makes you feel loved somehow.


5) QUALITY TIME
*Having good-solid time with family and friends. Spending every minute and second wisely and most importantly enjoying your life with your beloved family and friends or your loved ones.


For me, I feel that Quality Time and Physical Touch is for me as to me, gifts are not that important as both of these! For Acts Of Service is important as well , just that for me, I actually realize I did most of it to my friends and family as I always accompany them to do things rather than they accompany me. As for Words Of Affirmation, I feel that it's rather nice to receive compliments from people. But it's just that it's just so not me...coz I find it kind of weird as in maybe I'm not used to it. When people tell me nice things or compliment me, I will have the habit shrugging them off as if they were nothing which I feel really bad about it sometimes. 

I actually use this application in FB..."Message From GOD" and I got a msg on January 19 stating: "...when people tell you nice things, stop shrugging them off as if they were nothing. The sincere compliments you receive are your jewels,-collect them in your heart, - they highlight the beauty of your being and empower you during challenging times. Never say 'Oh, it's nothing' or shrug your shoulders when you hear a sincere compliment. Pause, breathe it in, and really feel its meaning." Seems like I have to try taking in compliments...

 
SO...QUALITY TIME & PHYSICAL TOUCH is for me...
I personally enjoy spending time with my family and friends and my parents are fine with my friends too...in fact they love to see who are the friends I actually hang out with so that they are sure that I mix with the right group of people. Sometimes they will even ask my friends along for dinner as well. I love my family and the way they brought me up as well. I am really blessed to have them and that's all I can say. 
For Physical touch, I love being hugged by my friends as well as my family. I felt loved this way...probably coz it's like a form of habit being build during my secondary school days...everyone were sisters and we were very close(: Until now whenever I meet up with my secondary school mate, we will still hug one other as a form of greeting(:



Thanks for reading...anyway I hope that you have found your 2 Types Of Love Languages in Life after reading it(:
