Information

Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.

That book was such a blessing to me (and my family i'm sure as well)! It was an eye opener of how what fills one child up will have little effect on another. I try to stay aware of what their language is and to accomadate. Great Book.

I'm going to take the quiz a little later today. This is a book I keep meaning to read, and never get around to. Maybe over our spring break this week...

I so appreciate The Five Love Languages. It helped me love my husband and children more effectively, and also healed wounds from my childhood. I realized my father and I spoke very different love languages and he was showing me love when I didn't see it. Awesome stuff!

Commonplace books are a means of coping with information overload! They help us select, organize, classify, and remember key moral precepts. "When it came time to put away childish things, the role of the copy book was assumed by its close cousin, the "commonplace book." The process of maturation required the production of more-personal collections of writings, meant to provide inspiration, direction, and moral fortitude. Reading the commonplace books of historical figures like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, or any number of antebellum Southern ladies gives us an interior view of each person's self-image and the words that motivated him or her. -- Rachel Toor "Commonplaces: From Quote Books to 'Sig' Files" The Chronicle of Higher Education May 25, 2001"
