The 5 Love Languages

The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 6d is days, 4yr is years.

This book was an eye-opener for me in understanding how things that I appreciate most from others is not what others appreciate. Equally important, what one person is comfortable doing to express appreciation, isn't always what someone else wants. These disconnects explain many issues in relationships. Understanding what motivates others and how to show your appreciation for them in a way that resonates starts with your significant other, but can apply to anyone.

The lesson is that connecting with others starts with recognizing that people are so different, especially in how they communicate. But there’s a much broader lesson embedded in this book if you read between the lines.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
