Key Takeaways:

Lynne Gordon Moquete is the Executive Director of @UnaVidaDR and the Human Interaction Teacher at Casa Grande High School.

She’s an incredible community champion and dedicated student advocate in Petaluma.  She recently posted a meme on Facebook about love that I found so insightful I’m sharing it today.  See if this resonates with you:

People don’t always say “I love you.” Sometimes it sounds more like:

Did you eat?

Call me when you get home.

Be safe.

I made you this.

All these different ways to say “I love you.”  She posted this in reference to the book “The 5 Love Languages” by Gary Chapman.  I’d never heard of the book and Lynne was kind enough to send me a copy. What a page turner!  Its basic premise is there are five primary “languages” of love and learning to express love in your spouse’s language is key to love that lasts.  These are the five languages:

Words of Affirmation

Acts of Service

Receiving Gifts

Quality Time

Physical Touch

Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus by John Gray

Love and Respect by Emerson Eggerichs

Today’s cover shows me and my wife in a moment where we were really speaking each other’s language.  It’s about connecting. And most of the time, it takes effort. What great thing doesn’t?

Remember: Always err on the side of love & kindness.

Love & Gratitude,

There are no healthy marriages without confession, repentance, and forgiveness.

Forgiveness is not a feeling. It is a decision to lift the penalty and declare the person pardoned.
