Love Language

I chose to do the blog assignment of the five love languages (http://5lovelanguages.com)

My love language results were:

2Words of Affirmation
11Quality Time
6Receiving Gifts
9Acts of Service
2Physical Touch

And my explaination was :
" The highest score indicates your primary love language (the highest score is 12). It’s not uncommon to have two high scores, although one language does have a slight edge for most people. That just means two languages are important to you.
The lower scores indicate those languages you seldom use to communicate love and which probably don’t affect you very much on an emotional level."


The information that I already knew about myself had to have been most definetly the lowest scores being "words of affirmation" and "physical touch". I personally lack any need or desire for reasurrance when it comes to love towards another individual. Along with that I also do not like to be physically touched and I found that was completely accurate in that aspect.

I'm surprised to find that I have a high interest in acts of service for me. I was not aware of that, but when I think about it in more depth, based on the questions asked I understand and agree with these results.

I think this is an interesting learning activity. It not only justifies someone in a way that may be conscious but as well in a subconcious way as well. That could be a real eye opener, I enjoyed this assignment.

Film Review- Food INC.

The film we watched was called Food Inc. It was a documentary on the food industry that exposed the food industry in a light that we try our hardest not to. Everyone knows the food industry is a lot less sanitary, for lack of a better word, than we would like to believe. Subconsciously, we try to block the little we know about how discusting the food industry really is.

But when watching the film, it made that nightmare a more credible one. Seeing first hand what it looks like to have our, soon-to-be hamburgers, walking around in their own, mixed with all the others, feces. It is one thing to hear about that, but seeing in presently visually made it become more life like and unappealing.

There was nothing that I disagreed with. All the evidence provided seemed to be back with a visual and credible verification, so I believe the facts that were presented. It is just a very shocking film to view as a whole, in general. Having my mom as a body builder and professional fitness trainer, I eat a healthy and balanced diet regularly so I can't say I feel it neccisary to change my eating patterns.

I would deffinetly recommend this to a friend who may be struggling with eating and living a healthy lifestyle as a way in hopes to create an epiphany for that individual. I would probably not thoroughy explain the film and would more have them taken by surprise for a harder and longer lasting impression.
