Why is Love important?

Generally, we would spend most of our time taking care of our physical needs. We make sure our bodies are fed, cleaned, clothed, exercised and rested. We also make sure intellectual stimulation and entertainment is a priority. Yet we also overlook the most important need -- love.



The need to love and care for others is built into us biologically. This need is what allows parents to forgo sleep, food, and sanity while raising their children. This need is what allows people to put themselves at risk to save others from natural disasters and human threats. This need is what makes human society work on both a small and large scale.
Love means to cherish, hold dear, and treasure. We do not hurt, harm, or cause pain to those we love; rather, we seek to relieve their suffering. It is not about wanting people; it's about wanting people to be happy. It's not about wanting to possess or control others; it's about wanting to set them free.

John Oxenham described love this way: "Love ever gives. Forgives, outlives. And ever stands with open hands. And while it lives, it gives. For this is love's prerogatives - to give, and give, and give."

Love is the grease that allows the wheel of life to continue turning. For when we love we look beyond ourselves, beyond our needs and desires. We sacrifice our time, our energy, our wishes, and sometimes even ourselves because of love. Sometimes it is for an immediate person or group that we know intimately and love completely, but other times it is for a larger group of people that we don't really know or perhaps even like. It is love that allows law enforcement and emergency services personnel to face danger. It is love that allows soldiers to risk everything. Love makes heroes every day in every corner of the world. As Thomas ã Kempis said: "Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of trouble, attempts what is above its strength... It is therefore able to undertake all things, and it completes many things, and warrants them to take effect, where he who does not love would faint and lie down." [buzzle.com,2010]

So all in all, Love is important because without it life has no meaning or purpose. As Frank Tebbets says "A life without love in it is like a heap of ashes upon a deserted hearth, with the fire dead, the laughter stilled and the light extinguished." Love allows us to be more and do more than we could ever accomplish without its power.

World Cup 2010 - Summary

Below is the article summary on a few remarkable points so far from the start up until the end of tournament.

Diego Forlan,the best uruguay player, has officially been named player of the tournament. He followed up a wonderful season with his club by helping his national team finish fourth in the World Cup. The striker was hands down the driving force behind the Uruguayan squad. Every time Uruguay needed some magic, it was Forlan who produced it. Even in the dying seconds of the third place playoff game when the rest of the team gave up, Forlan set up a beautiful strike which came off the post. Had that gone in, Forlan would have taken home the Golden boot along with the Golden ball.

Despite the fact that referees were highly criticized throughout the tournament, based on the few bad decisions that they made, they had generally been outstanding throughout. The games were made to flow, the referees didn’t get distracted by any simulation or dive and managed to get most of the big decisions right. While a number of big names failed to deliver at the tournament, the referees didn’t

The 2010 World Cup saw the rise of the youth from almost every country. Germany featured most of their under 21, and the World Cup winning squad Spain also had one of the youngest squads in the tournament. Thomas Muller who is only twenty one years old is taking home the golden boot award. This just proves that even with very little experience, the right mixture of talent and determination can take you far.

Ultimately the biggest winners of the tournament are none other than the Spanish squad. The Spanish lost their opening game against the Swiss which saw most people claim them to be over hyped. But Spain quickly recovered after that and started winning every game. Spain didn’t score the millions of goals that they were expected to score but in fact, did the exact opposite. Spain went on to win most of their matches by a score line of one goal to nil. This saw them set a new record of being the lowest scoring World Cup winners in the history of the tournament. It is impossible to say that Spain didn’t deserve to win, they always played positive football and didn’t fail to entertain at any moment. [bettor.com, 2010]
