Translation: (speaking from my PoV)

Well, i've never been in a serious relationship. But knowing one's "love language" doesn't only entail the romantic. the language of love can be spoken and translated even to the closest interpersonal relationship you have, be it with your family or friends.

I guess, i feel more loved when... people do things for me. or I'd be doing things for them.
i appreciate things made over things bought. no matter how expensive an object may be. i'd count quality time more valuable than any sparkling gift you could give me. Spending time, and doing things we both like are forever treasured. That's me. that's how i am in a relationship. We have our own translation of love. well, i guess mine is a good mix of service and quality time. Come to think of it, you could never render service to your loved ones, unless you devote much time to it.

I just hope that the man who'd come into my life would have the same love language, or if not, something closer. i know that my idealisms are skimming in, but i guess that's how things would flourish. I need not fret. coz i have God Who knows what's in my heart. I should focus on Him first. Love Him above all things. He would come when my good Lord knows that I am ready. In the meantime, i know that i have to fix myself. set my priorities. know my innermost fears and aspirations. Value my relationship with my Maker. enjoy life as is. coz i know when "my time" comes, things would be more complicated. different even. coz i wouldn't be able to do much on my own, i have to consider another individual's opinion on things. but before that time comes, i still have countless days to seize!

i guess, i'd have to add another item to my prayer. that my partner would complement the love language that i speak. but first and foremost, we should have the same passion for our Maker, then things would just fall into place. (sigh)
