    Tom wondered for what seemed to be the millionth time why Dectives were required to dress like wall-street bankers or stock analysts. At least that was the expectation in public, however the moment he had the office to himself, he unknotted his tie, slipped off the linen suit jacket, and undid the top button of his shirt, then sat back in his chair, raised his eyes to the ceiling, and tapped the tip of a ballpoint pen against his teeth.

Therefore, the sudden familiar sound of her voice, accompanied by the enticing aroma of barbecue, startled him, and he immediately shot upright. The sight of Lila elicited a smile that only widened with the greeting and kiss. "Sorry baby."…

    Mahatma Gandhi once said, “Gentleness, self-sacrifice, and generosity are the exclusive possession of no race or religion.” This quote genuinely describes how anyone has the capability of sacrificing for others, no matter if an individual looks different from someone else.

It creates opportunities to help people when it is needed the most. In society, praise is commended when one sacrifices for another person's social, emotional, and physical well-being. In Khaled Hosseini's novel, The Kite Runner, it is evident that self-sacrifice is required to create close friendships. This novel…
