More From Laurell K. Hamilton

I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. i hate the way you drive my car. i hate it when you stare. i hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind. i hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme. i hate it, i hate the way you're always right. i hate it when you lie. i hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry. i hate it when you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call. but mostly i hate the way i don't hate you. not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.

The more the specific feelings of being under obligation range themselves under a supreme principle of human dependence the clearer and more fertile will be the realization of the concept, indispensable to all true culture, of service; from the service of god down to the simple social relationship as between employer and employee.

Why all of these broken homes? what happens to marriages that begin with sincere love and a desire to be loyal and faithful and true one to another? there is no simple answer. i acknowledge that. but it appears to me that there are some obvious reasons that account for a very high percentage of these problems. i say this out of experience in dealing with such tragedies. i find selfishness to be the root cause of most of it.
