Love Languages~

Today, i attended a welfare and wellness seminar organized by SAF's personal care centre, the welfare arm of the SAF. Well, usually when one of these courses appeared in my mailbox, asking me to apply and go for it, i would usually just delete the mail. There's a misconception among alot of pple that seminars are useless, blah blah blah, decreases short term productivity and work ouput. However, the reason why i signed up for this seminar was ya noe, National day blues, don't feel like going to work. Hey! there's a half day seminar to attend! Just sign up man.
Never did i noe that i was going to learn so much in the seminar, and take away valuable points and experiences.....

One of the distinguished speaker that spoke, Dr Tan Khian Seng, talked abt Mending Relationships and Healing Hearts. He talked about love languages and how different pple give and receive different love languages, and that's there's misunderstanding, and that's how there's broken relationships. First, there's Act of Service, someone whose actions show how much he loves his/her significant other. Actions like cleaning the house, making sure that he/she has everything needed, cooking a meal for he/her etc etc. Then there's Quality time. Some pple sacrifice their time for one another, Spending quality time with each other, enjoying the sunrrise or sunset, or even drinking coffee together, doing a favourite activity together. Next, Physical Closeness. The physical presence of the other person is important. He/She must feel his/her touch. A hug or a kiss, cuddling together is an expression of love. Gifts giving. Some pple give gifts as an act of love. Husbands give wives diamond rings, flowers. Wife give husband...eh..i dunno. ahaha. Lastly, there's Words of encouragement. Words that heal, words that touch the heart of the person, words that motivates, words that revives, words of love.

Which of the 5 love languages do you give?
Which of the 5 do you wish to receive?
