One “must” for this week

"Do you know the five love languages? " by Gary Champan.

The concept of the five love languages highlights different ways people express and receive love: words of affirmation, acts of service, gifts, quality time, and physical touch.

There’s no “one-size-fits-all”.

If we understand these languages and individual preferences, we can enhance our relationship satisfaction, and we can communicate our needs effectively.
