Love Languages

   How do you show love?  In what ways do you best receive it?  Do you know?  The five love languages can help.
   The languages are Words of Affirmation, Physical Touch, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, and Quality Time.  They are how you speak love.  They are how you understand love.  The five love languages help you understand your friends, family, and that special someone.  Learning your language and the languages of your loved ones helps you show love in ways that mean the most and to appreciate how other people love you.
   My primary love language is Words of Affirmation.  Words mean a ton to me.  I will remember the things you say to me longer than anything else.  Words bring me huge amounts of joy, but, in turn, they also hurt me the most.  No matter what you to me, your words will touch my heart.

Find Your Inspiration

   I was babysitting five of my little cousins yesterday.  And we got bored.  So we watched Chicken Run.  And I was inspired.  By this:

Bunty: Oh, face the facts, ducks. The chances of us getting out of here are a million to one.

Ginger: Then there's still a chance.

 

   So many times I find myself complaining that there is nothing new to write about, nothing to ignite my passion, nothing to inspire me.  I blame my apathy on my surroundings, when in reality it's not the things or the people around me, it's simply the way I look at them.
   When I look for inspiration, I find it.  I find it in the colors of the leaves on the trees, a laughing child, or worship.  Inspiration is lurking in the kind words of a stranger, hiding out around each unexpected twist and turn of the road, and right out there in the open of the big, bright, blue sky.
   Don't sit there and wait for something big to happen.  Get out there and make it happen.  Keep your eyes and your heart open.  Be inspired.

I Was Thinking About Freedom

Yeah, ^^that's pretty intense.  You don't have to watch if you don't want to.  Especially if you don't want to cry.

   I was thinking about William Wallace.  And I was thinking about how "Every man dies. Not every man really lives."  And I was thinking about Brave Heart.  And I was thinking about him dying.  I was thinking about him yelling.  "Freeeeeddoooooooommmmm!!"
   And it got me thinking.  I know someone greater than William Wallace.  One who was beaten, spit upon, scourged, humiliated, and nailed to a cross.  One who gave His life for freedom.  Freedom for the Scots, and freedom for the English.  Freedom for you, and freedom for me.  Freedom for the whole world.  Everlasting freedom.

P.S. Mel Gibson is pretty awesome.
