The Language of Love

So, I realized that it's been over a month now since I've written here......sorry about that. :P I feel so horrible....

Yeah, like this. :P

So, I'm on Spring Break. And I'm not at home. :O I am in Maryland with my epic friend, Lauren. :D You know one of the best things about break? It's that I've had a break from people I know that belong to the male part of the species. :P Now, don't get me wrong, I love them all very much, but I just needed a break, you know? To get my head on straight and be able to think clearly and not have clouds of misjudgment over my head because my head is confused by boys. :P (But for any of you guys out there who happen to read this, I have missed you guys a lot this week. ^_^)

Isn't Boo just adorable?!?!?! ^_^

So, I've had time to think, but I've also had time to read as well. My friend Yoyo lent me this book that she said would be good for me to read. It's called "The Five Love Languages" by Dr. Gary Chapman. Now, normally I would probably recommend this kind of book to almost anyone, but I don't think I can recommend it 100% to my single friends out there since the subtitle of this book is "How To Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate". :P Yeah, the examples used in this book are married couples, but if you want to learn about love languages, by all means, read it if you want. :)

There it is, for those interested.

Anyway, even though I'm the farthest thing from being married (you know, being single and all), I did learn something from this book. Love languages. For those who don't know, there are five main love languages: Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch. Each one is how one expresses love/knows that they are loved. And I think I've found out mine: Physical Touch. I love getting hugs, and one of the best things a person can do for me when I am really sad is to just hold me. Those are just a few hints that I think lead me to knowing that my love language is Physical Touch. :)

I know the one thing that I know is going to be a fun job for me is to find out what the love language is of my Prince. Maybe I'll get lucky and his love language will be Physical Touch as well. :D But maybe it won't. And if so, I'm gonna have to find out what it is so I can speak his language, and that will be a fun experience. ^_^

Now that I'm done reading this book, I am quite tempted to pick up another book that I've read in the past, but it would be worth it to read it again. It's called "When God Writes Your Love Story" by Eric and Leslie Ludy. I have read this book twice now, but I'd be totally willing to read it again. It is such a good way to show how waiting on God and giving Him the pen to your love story is totally worth it. It definitely helped me give the pen over to God. Now, granted, there are times when I struggle and try to take the pen back, but every time I've let go and let God have full control. And I know that by giving Him control, He will write a beautiful love story for me.

And here this is, for those interested.

This is a great book for girls and guys. Trust me, especially since it's written by both of them. :D I would suggest this to anyone I know.

Well, that's pretty much all I have for right now. I will write again when inspiration strikes. And, to my Prince, I still look forward to the day that we can be together, forever.

P.S. Oh, also, I got a new promise ring! :D Now people won't think I'm engaged anymore since it looks nothing like an engagement ring. ^_^ It looks sort of like this....

Yeah, something like this.

Edit: Okay, so I actually took a love language test made by Dr. Gary Chapman, and guess what? I was close in what my primary love language is, but not quite right. :P Shows how much I really know myself. My primary love language is actually Quality Time. Thinking about it makes sense actually. Though I must say that a close second was Physical Touch, so it's all good. :) I don't know who actually reads edits, but whatever. :P ^_^
