All of their friends and family came to see the lovely ceremony. Everyone could tell that the love they had for each other was true.A few months later, the wi
24、fe came to the husband with a piece of advice, “I read in a magazine, a while ago, about how we can strengthen our marriage,” she offered. “Each of us will write a list of the things that we find a bit annoying with the other person. Then, we can talk about how we can fix them together and make our
25、lives happier together.”The husband agreed. So each of them tried to think of the things that annoyed them about the other and wrote down what they came up with. The next morning, at the breakfast table, they decided that they would go over their lists.“Ill start,” offered the wife. She took out her
26、 list. It had many items on it, enough to fill three pages. In fact, as she started reading the list of the little annoyances, she noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husbands eyes because he never thought that he had so many shortcomings.The wife continued to read until she had read a
27、ll three pages to her husband. “Now, you read your list and then well talk about the things on both of our lists,” she said happily.Quietly the husband stated, “I dont have anything on my list. I think that you are perfect. I dont want you to change anything for me. You are lovely and wonderful and
28、I wouldnt want to try and change anything about you.” The wife, touched by his honesty and the depth of his love for her and his acceptance of her, turned her head and wept.In life, there are enough times when we are disappointed, depressed and annoyed. We dont really have to go looking for them. We
29、 have a wonderful world that is full of beauty, light and promise.

32、. we should try to look for and see the wonderful things around usBThere is no question that teenagers need rules, which is often not a difficult thing for parents to give. What can be more challenging is giving teenagers their freedom. It can be difficult to draw the line between the two. However,
33、some issues cannot be changed by discussion and require firm rules. For instance, rules should be established concerning driving the family car. I will admit that I have no problem coming up with rules. To me they make life easier and they leave no room for questioning. What can be more difficult, h
34、owever, is giving my teens their freedom. I guess there are really two primary reasons for this. One is that sometimes I am afraid to give them freedom. The second is that Im not always so sure what the freedom should be.It helps that I have a husband with whom I can discuss these problems. We talk
35、about them, give our thoughts and then we come up with an agreement. Sometimes one of us might be more unwilling but we know that there comes a time when we really do have to learn how to let go of the reins (缰绳) a bit.If we try to make life have nothing but rules, we are more likely to see our teen
36、s rebelling (反抗). They need to know that while we do have certain expectations, we also trust them to begin making their own choices and decisions. How else can they do that unless they are given the space and room to do it?Its really all about balance and I will be the first to admit that it can be

40、sk factor for cancer.

41、ne exercise test to measure physical fitness. They were given a physical fitness score, with one being the lowest and five being the highest fitness level. Then these people were followed for an average of 8 years. During this time, 179 men and 44 women died of cancer. Data from the Aerobics Center
