...by: Anonymous “The love of money is the root of all evil.” It’s true. It makes people do things that they never thought they’d do. It makes people betray and put down their friends Just so they can get the money in the end. The love of money is nothing like the love of men; It makes people covet things that don’t belong to them. It can blind people and be the only thing they see. It can make a man lie so endlessly. It can make you realize the following is true: Sometimes what you’re looking for is right in front of you. *** There once was a young woman named Isabella Goodman Who was admired by not one, but by two men. One was high-class and rich, and as dashing as could be, One was humble and poor, but “I love her,” to his sister said he. You see, the rich man named George did not love the girl. He wanted more money more than anything else in the world. But the poor man named Ben had a character pure and true; He loved her with all his heart and wanted her to love him too. So while Ben worked for days and days to buy her a ring, George tried to buy Bella’s love by buying her many nice things. Even though he had so much money of his own, George wanted even more for him and him alone. Isabella was blind to George’s evil intention; She was too busy being flattered by all his attention. When Ben saw George with Bella it truly broke his heart. Ben just wanted to marry her and never be apart. He saw through George’s masks of...

...The Love of Money is the root of all kinds of Evil People do many evil things in order to get rich. (Biblical. Compare this with Idleness is the root of all evil.) Fred: I know I could make more money if I just knew the right things to invest in. Ellen: Don't worry so much about money. It's the root of all evil, after all. As the newspapers continued to report the dastardly things the wealthy young banker had done to become even wealthier, people shook their heads and remarked, "The love of money is the root of all evil." The Apostle Paul, in his first letter to his young disciple, Timothy, had this to say: “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs” (1 Timothy 6:10). Now this verse is often misquoted as saying, “Money is the root of all evil.” Notice how “money” is substituted for “love of money” and “the root of all evil” is substituted for “a root of all kinds of evil.” These changes, while subtle, have an enormous impact on the meaning of the verse. The misquoted version (“money is the root of all evil”) makes money and wealth the source (or root) of all evil in the world. This is clearly false. The Bible makes it quite clear that sin is the root of all evil in the world (Matthew 15:19;Romans 5:12;James 1:15). However, when we reflect upon the correct citation of this verse, we see that it is the love of money, not money itself, that is a source...

...How deep are your Roots in Christ Love. Introduction Be rooted, grounded and established in the word of God is our theme for the church. Since the beginning of the year, as a church we have taken time to understand what it means to be rooted, grounded and enlightened in the word of God. The women ministry/Joy fellowship have also derived their theme for their celebration week to go deeper into the theme and take time to examine ourselves how deep are our roots in Christ Love based on Ephesians 3: 17. Paul was praying for the church of Ephesus, that Christ may dwell in their hearts and that they may be rooted in Christ Love. He also prayed for them further, (Vs 18-19) that they may be able to comprehend the depth, the width of Christ love which passes knowledge, and after they comprehend this love they will be filled with fullness of God. As we endeavor to be rooted, grounded and enlightened by the word of God, one of the roots that we ought to develop and let it grow deeper is the root of love. What does it mean to be rooted in Christ Love? To be rooted in Christ Love means that we are established in the Love of Christ. Christ Love make us complete, the foundation of Christianity is based on what Christ did for us on the cross. Unless we have a clear picture of depth, width, length, and height of the kind of Love that Christ had for mankind then we can never understand what love is. After we have comprehended Christ love for mankind, then we can be able to apply...

...(i carry it in my heart)” by E.E Cummings explores the feelings of being in love with someone. This poem is about the unity of two lovers and how two souls are always with each other no matter what. E.E Cummings uses figurative language, repetitive speech, symbolism, allusions and metaphors. Love and unity are stressed throughout “i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)”. The actual writing of this poem is interesting. One reason is because all of the “I”’s are lowercase. This is indicating that not one person is important it’s the couple as a whole that is important. When E.E Cummings is describing love it is not about “I” it is about them. Also there is parenthesis in each line. This could mean the two are connected both emotionally and visually from the poem. When one reads this poem aloud, they can find themselves squishing the lines together since it is so repetitive. It has a unified sound much like the theme of the poem. Such as the...

...Darwin Quinde Comp.Lit March 1, 2012 An Essay on love Love is a huge feeling that carries many other emotions along with it. The common theme on the poems “Love one another” by Khalil Gibran, “Meeting at night” by Robert Browning and “If you forget me” by Pablo Neruda is that love is more than just being next to the person that we love. In the three poems we see that love is the main theme but it is presents it in a different point of view in each one. In the poem “love one another” by Khalil Gibran the narrator talks about how individuality is important for relationships. The narrator tells the readers that love shouldn’t be rigid and inflexible in the first line of the poem “Don’t make a bond of love” because it could cause the end of a relationship. The tone of voice in this poem is a little persuasive. The narrator is trying to convince us that doing things together is good for a relationship but there should be things that people should do individuality. For instance, “Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone” demonstrates the narrator’s tone of voice and how people need their own time. The author uses imagery to show how love isn’t just about being together but it is also about knowing how to adapt to different situations in life. A perfect example of it is “Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.” Which demonstrate that love shouldn’t be rigid and not changing but instead passive and changing. The Narrators...

...MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL. I don't agree with that saying. Money is the instrument of exchange. It helps in buying and selling and also in fixing a value on things or services. It may be in metal or in paper. Money is always said to be the root of all evil, but I dont agree with that. The money is said to be the root of evil because man have a wrong usage on it. Actually, money is just a medium of exchange. Money does not have brain to think how to hurt people. It is the thought of human that used money as a tool for evil purpose. Many of them did wrong looking for a quick buck or two and end up doing some action that hurt another people. But they blame all the fault on money in fact is their brain that cause the evil. Money is not the root of all evil. In fact, the love of money is the root of all evil. When a person love money so much, he will jealous on other with more money and he tends to get more money than him in every possible way even by committed crime. A man greedy is also another negative sign of loving money. They never satisfy the amount of money they have, they want more and more. They steal, rob and cheat to get quick money to fulfill their greedy. In addition, the wrong definition towards money is also causing the evil. Many people think that money is everything, no money mean no life. But when we look backward, the ancient people still can survive without money. Money is just a tool that used to exchange goods. People nowadays become slaves...

...Love Yourself to Improve Your Confidence Frame of Reference “The Psychodynamic approach can help one to understand a person’s ability to work as well as to love” (Cole, 2012). “It goes into details to explain how mental processes, such as perceptions, thoughts, and feelings that are either unconscious or conscious influence a person’s ability to participate and being satisfied with his or her occupation” (Bruce & Borg, 2002). This approach has been widely used to treat patients with mental illness. “The model has been used in a variety of different formats including long- and short-term individual work. In its short form, a problem solving approach is utilized, involving the use of “forms of feeling” to link together specific emotions, memories,...

...saying is used when the ordinary citizen wins an election and goes to Washington, DC and gets caught taking bribes or misappropriating funds. Reading the newspaper reveals spouses killing one another over insurance money. 2. How should this verse be properly understood according to the author of The Most Misused Verses in the Bible? “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.” 1 Timothy 6:10 New International version. This verse is misquoted as: Money is the root of all evil. First of all money is not the root of all evil, sin is the root of all evil. Money is not evil. It is not bad to have money or to be rich. What is wrong is when a person is not happy with what they have, but has to have more money. That becomes the love of money and with that people will do anything to get more money. Money becomes their master and in their pursuit they walk away from their Christian faith. Soon they are totally lost and hopeless. This is not the way that God wants you to live your life. This is what the verse means “money is the root of all kinds of evil.” 3. Based on Bargerhuff’s conclusion, how does this verse provide hope, encouragement, or support to the modern reader? “The...

...Roots grow deep in the earth. They can be traced back hundreds of years, being a constant in an ever-changing world. They can provide growth to the smallest of ideas or the largest of theories, transporting knowledge up phloems and xylems. Roots can remind us of our beginnings, they can bring us back to our fundamentals when we seem lost in a whirlwind of complexities. Whenever my life gets convoluted and I feel like my goals have been mixed up in a jumble of busyness, I like to sit down and remember where they came from. I have many fascinations in my life, some of which include a love for the performing arts, supporting gender equality and respect towards women, and learning about my Algonquin heritage.

...English 102-08 22 October 2012 Space for Love: Nature’s Domain While reading the assigned texts I’ve noticed that love needs special settings and spaces. Throughout time these spaces have adapted and changed to help suit generations. Literature has played a key role in the changing of these places. Although each writer’s interpretation of love-like settings may differ from one another, there are very basic similarities between them. Tradition has made it so that nature is almost always involved in these, “Spaces for Love.” Also, traditionally we would expect love between opposite sexes but there is tremendous amounts of literature written now that involve love between the same sexes. My goal in this essay is to show that through the change in old and more recent literature nature has been key in traditional views of love settings/places. To reach this goal, I’ll be using and comparing quotes from the bible’s Song of Songs and Paul Monette’s Gardenias to show how nature has always been an important part of places for love. Starting with Song of Songs, it is said to have been written by King Solomon himself but it is also believed to be a compilation of Arabic wasfs that were translated into Hebrew. It was first published in English in 1611 in the King James Version of the Bible. The idea of love being heterosexual is represented very clearly and the concept of nature plays a huge part in this love story. There are so many references to fruits and plants and a clear distinction...
