The thunderous shouts and cheers drew me back to the TV screen . Oh , my dear , the young runner was speed . He was running to the finish line . He was strong enough to other runners . His courage , heart and discipline together with his years of practice won him the honor . Tears rolled down my cheeks when I found on the screen the young runner was looking around . I understood at once that he was looking for me . For years, he had become so my presence , success or failure . It must have seemed strange for him to find me missing.

I didn’t marry for all the “right reasons” . Love had to do with marriage . And , for my husband’s part , well , I love was on his mind either .He married me because I made him feel young . He was such an ordinary man going his very ordinary midlife crisis . He was divorced , looking for younger women and a career change . That didn’t me, though . He was still fairly charming , pretty handsome and rich . I married for money , and I don’t have any about it . My friends don’t my decision , but I can also tell that they wish , at least a little bit , for some of the same things that I now enjoy . They always prefer to a lot of time by my swimming pool than at their common little homes . And another thing , they are always about their “beloved” . “He’s always watching how much I spend .” “It’s become more like a business relationship a marriage .”

My husband , however, doesn’t how much I spend and our marriage never became a business because it already was one . You could say , we have a understanding . We are very about the whole thing . It is painful for my friends when they realize that love is just a(n) . Marriage for love never existed for me . And , he’ll never me . He’d lose too much money .

Love is important because without it life has no meaning or purpose . Love allows us to do more than we could accomplish without its power . So often we take good care of our needs . We make sure our bodies are fed , cleaned , clothed , exercised and rested . However , we tend to the most important need -----love . Of course , as a society , love is not overlooked . Popular media constantly places great emphasis what we need to do to attract “love”. being loved is not as powerful an emotional need as that desire to love someone else .

The need to love and others is built into us biologically . This need is allows parents to give up sleep and food while raising their children . This need is what allows people to put themselves to save others from natural or threats .

Love means to cherish , hold dear , and treasure . We do not hurt , harm , or cause pain to those we love; rather , we seek to their suffering . It’s not about wanting to possess or control others ; it’s about wanting to set them free . Love is the power allows the wheel of life to continue turning , for when we love we look our own needs and desires . We our time , our energy , our wishes , and sometimes even ourselves because of love . It is love that allows emergency services personnel to face danger . It is love that allows soldiers to everything . The ultimate definition of love is not about feeling good about doing good .

“Knock it off !” Billy would not banging his foot on the table . Mrs . Stewart had lost all in telling him to stop . Her words were falling on ears . She had asked her son to

quit doing something that was bothering her so many times that she even knew the words were coming from her mouth . Billy had this . He just his mom’s expressions like these . He banged on without a pause .

She used to try to phrase her words in ways like , “When you bang on the table that way , it me . Would you doing something else that is a little quieter? ” There was warmth in her voice and she had all of the best . But when she actually managed to get Billy’s attention in this way , he simply replied , “But I’m bored.” She tried to offer him a bunch of , but nothing worked and it all became too tedious . It had become even to herself that she was using negative expressions .

Mrs. Stewart seems to understand that she shouts she can’t expect Billy to respond immediately . But she still believes that to keep on the pressures might work someday . Children may learn that arguing no longer works because of her continuous shouting .

What’s in a name ? Your fate could have been different if you had been given a different name at your birth . Some of us that our name does not necessarily fit and start using a different name the one we were given . Many of us use our middle name so we can be true to our parents, and at the same time be more confident . Some people who have changed their name that their professional lives improved . They feel better about themselves so they are to achieve more . But those who have changed their names are not just being overly sensitive .
