Marriage Builder: The five love languages part 2 of 5

Quality Time  


The second love language I want to talk about is "Quality Time".  Most of us ladies love that have that quality time with our spouses.  What is quality time?  Quality time is when you give your undivided attention to someone else and that doesn't mean sitting on the couch and watching T.V. together.  It means looking at each other while talking ( not gazing elsewhere when talking to each other)  when you are having dinner or taking a walk together without distractions.

Today I will talk about "Togetherness" which is one of the parts of quality time.  Togetherness has to do with focused attention, which means when we are doing something together, we are giving our full attention to the other person.  Talking to your spouse and watching T.V., cooking, or doing something else at the same time, shows that our spouse doesn't have our full attention.  But when you are doing something together like playing a game together, if it is genuine quality time, the focus is that you are spending time together and not on the game.  When the focus is spending time together not on the activity itself you're involving yourselves on an emotional level.

I hope you enjoyed reading this and would like your input.  The next blog will be the 2nd part of "quality time", which will be "Quality Conversation"

This blog is based on the book, "The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts" by Gary Chapman.  His book goes into much more detail you should buy it!!

Remember you marriage is important, God created it so work on it!!

Love you guys!
