    　　Freda Bright says, "Only in opera(戏剧)do people die of love．" It's true．You really can't love somebody to death．I've known people to die from no love, but I've never known anyone to be loved to death．We just can't love one another enough．

    　　A heart-warming story tells of a woman who finally decided to ask her boss for a raise in payment．All day she felt nervous and uneasy．Late in the afternoon she collected the courage to approach her employer．To her joy, the boss agreed to a raise．The woman arrived home that evening to a beautiful table set with their best dishes．Candles were softly glowing．Her husband had come home early and prepared a festive meal．She wondered if someone from the office had told him the news, or…did he just somehow know that she would not get turned down?

    　　She found him in the kitchen and told him the good news．They held each other in arms and kissed, then sat down to the wonderful meal．Next to her plate the woman found a beautifully lettered note．It read, "Congratulations, darling! I knew you'd get the raise! These things will tell you how much I love you．"

    　　Someone has said that the measure(尺度)of love is when you love without measure．What this man feels for his wife is total acceptance and love, whether she succeeds or fails．His love celebrates her victories and cares for her wounds．He stands with her, no matter what life throws in their direction．
