The language of Love The basic need of every human being is love. How that need is expressed depends on well it is communicated in a MODE that is understood by the individual. There are five languages of love. The five languages are: communicating love through gift giving, communicating love by the physical touch, communicating love by acts of service, communicating love by affirmations, communicating love through quality time. Which works best for you?? My love languages are communication through words of affirmation and quality time. Verbal compliments or words of appreciation are powerful communicators of LOVE. {Affirming words ( encouraging words )-encourage means to inspire courage} Encouragement is another powerful tool to communicate love. Sometimes insecurities ( we all have them ) hinder us from accomplishments. We are not operating at our full potential when we let our insecurities hinder us from making positve accomplishments in our lives. So when someone shows us love by encouraging us to operate at our full potential, we become who we are meant to be and we feeled loved. Quality time means to be fully engaged in each other, the time is focused on each other, The one who is showing us love by the undivided attention makes us feel loved. We know we are loved. The purpose of knowing your love language is to be a better communicator. Knowing your primary love languages can help those around you show love in a way that you understand. |

Hi RLStevens My ex-husband was like that too. His actions spoke louder then words. He used to clean my car, a job I dreaded and would do it but it was never a labour of love. I did it because I like to have a clean car. He would take my car every Saturday, when he could that is, and clean it spotless. I loved getting into a sparkling clean car with the intertior of it smelling so fresh. I felt like a queen getting into my car. That was his way of showing me how much he cared. He spent time and took the time to have it so thoroughly cleaned. Luvshack

There are many ways of communicating love Luvshack. I am not necessarily saying it is the intimate kind either although that is important as well. To me to have a hug at the beginning of each day and just a gentle touch would make me feel so good. To know that someone is there to make you feel special and loved is far beyond anything I have ever known.

Hi Shartuan welcome to my little corner of heaven. I love to write so this is a great avenue for me to express myself. Physical touch is one of the languages of love. We all need to be touched and held, or cuddle, or massaged whatever. Touch is very very important to every human being but to some it is the way they need their loved ones to show them they are loved. I myself need that too and thoroughly enjoy it but my loved ones not only have to hug me but they also have to give me an affirmation that they do love me. I need to hear and then I feel loved. We use all the 5 languages of love at one time or other in other lives but some are used at lesser degrees then others. Right now, I need affirmations and quality times. Great response! Luvshack

Hi Reginian, I wonder if there's still tickets left?? I always enjoyed the dancing. When I have Ukrainian children in my classroom, I always invite them to dance in costume. I do agree with you, I love what I do, and I love children so I do believe I do make a difference. I might not make a difference in all of my students lives but I hope I get to the touch that one child that needed me the most and I did make a difference in the one child. Service is great, I'm so happy for you! Congrats on the concert. I know you will get the Centre of the Arts packed! Luvshack
