If a person can be Overwhelmed, then how come a less enthusiastic person can't just be whelmed?

1. Since wholes include you, you would be thought as part.
2. Since parts compose you, you would be thought as whole.
3. Since differences distinguish you, you would be thought as equivalence.
4. Since equivalences equate you, you would be thought as uniqueness.
5. Since limits limit you, you would be thought as link.
6. Since links link you, you would be thought as limit.
7. Since influences influence you, you would be thought as sensation.
8. Since sensations sense you, you would be thought as influence.
9. Since derivatives inherit you, you would be thought as origin.
10. Since origins originate you, you would be thought as derivative.
11. Since conditions condition you, you would be thought as rule.
12. Since rules rule you, you would be thought as condition.
13. Since fulfillments fulfill you, you would be thought as intent.
14. Since intents intend you, you would be thought as fulfillment.

What else would be thought about you?

i am a deep believer in God but i believe that prayer is for spiritual goals than getting answers to mundane problems like cure my cancer or pay my credit card debts or make me pass with a B in this math exam please kind of prayers .
however as i am growing older ( i am 37 years and 4 months ) i am getting the feeling that when the exuberance and optimism of youth fade away and we have rubbed our idealistic shins on the rough concrete of reality we need some support some hope that things will be better . that the situation will be saved ; that as long as i have good intentions God is watching over me and that he is a benevolent God ...
so should i change my tack about God and start praying to him to answer my prayers as long as i promise the goodness of my soul shall always grow stronger till i die ?
opinion please ... i am feeling confused .( i am not a Christian or i could ask my pastor for help ; and anyone of any religious denomination is free to answer candidly )

I'm 14, 9th grade. My english teacher told me the other day that I have "a gift." Everyone around me always compliments my writing A LOT. The thing is...I'm not sure I'm good enough. I've been told I should publish, but could a 14-year-old really spark that much interest? Here's some papers I wrote for english...please tell me what you think....

My Love for You

When I ‘am with you all I want to do is stare deep into your gorgeous eyes.
I want to surprise you everyday and put flowers on your bed.
I never want to hurt you or let you feel a hint of sadness.
The way I love you feels like an addiction that I can’t be cured of.
The second I see you my spirits lift to great heights.
Your voice is that of an Angel’s making me tremble.
It feels like you were a messenger of GOD to come and save me and bring me happiness.
My love for you goes beyond words.
No great poet of this age or any age can bring it to words.
The world stops spinning and even time itself stops for you and only you.
Our love is enough to make other people jealous but yet we do not flaunt it.
We keep it to ourselves and cherish it and hopefully with fate we will cherish it,
cherish it until our dying days. Some one wrote this for me but i think they lied, is this poem already written?

This week, I spoke to people who dislike money and those who like money. I also heard discussions about very different philosophies about money and its uses.

Do you like money? Do you dislike money?
What is your philosophy of money?

I'm looking for those old, ornate letters used in ancient text, like in old Bibles. I haven't found anything similar online or in any font selection. I like the symbolic use of flowers and vines, usually also painted in gilt, some include Celtic borders and symbols. Any reference books? Anything in Caligraphy books? Any suggestions?
