Appreciation

APPRECIATION

Of course we appreciate our partners, but sometimes among the stress of life we forget to actually tell them that. In fact, the more reliable, helpful, and supportive they are, the harder it actually is to recognize that they are doing something extraordinary for us on a daily basis. But if we sit back for a moment and think about what we would do without them- to seek advice from, for supporting us and encouraging us, to talk to when we need to vent about work, when we’re distraught about a personal problem, or feeling sad or defeated- we might realize that we wouldn’t be remotely capable of being the best version of ourselves, or even functioning, without them. And that’s something prettyyy meaningful we should appreciate.

As we mentioned before, there are 5 Love Languages– words of affirmation, acts of service, receiving gifts, quality time, and physical touch. The beauty of appreciation is that it can be expressed without necessarily requiring a lot of effort, and it can be expressed through pretty much any of the 5 love languages.
