The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love that Lasts

This book enhanced every single one of my relationships (friends, family etc). I am looking forward to sharing these ideas with my spouse when I get married. All my friends know how much I live by these 5 love languages. The big lessons I got from reading this are:
1) It helps the people in my life understand me and how I function in relationships. It offers them insight on how to give me love in the best way I can receive it.
2)It provides me with insight on the best way to give love to others, particularly those that don't speak the same language as me.
3) (And this is the biggest lesson of them all) It made me a more open vessel for the love in my life. Because when there is more than one love language, it is possible that someone is giving me the wrong kind, one that doesn't speak to me or fill up my "love tank" at all. This book opened my heart to the different kinds of love out there and helped me to forgive the people who couldn't step out of themselves to give me the type of love I need. Perhaps their language is the only one they know.

Great read for everyone! Regardless of your favorite genres, everyone should have this book on their bookshelf.
