Love Tanks

I have been feeling quite depressed over the Easter holiday as I had no plans for it. People I wanted to spend time with were out of town and even if they were in town, it's probably not such a good idea to see them. See....it's depressing! Anyway, I went for some retail therapy yesterday and it seems to work as I was feeling lighter enough not to go to the church and have lunch with friends today.

After lunch we went for a walk on the beach. He mentioned a book he read about the five love languages:
  • Words of Affirmation
  • Quality Time
  • Receiving Gifts
  • Acts of Service
  • Physical Touch
I thought they were quite interesting and may be even helpful for whoever is reading my blog. A skillful communication is really important and if you can identify you and your partner's needs, then you can both learn each others love languages and met each others needs. I find the idea really neat even it's rather obvious once it has been pointed out!

Have a google of Dr. Gary Chapman's five love languages and wish you can fill you and your partner's love tanks in a more efficient way.
