I have recently read a novel by Colleen McCullogh called "The Thorn Birds". This novel is one of the most popular novels of recent times. In this novel, forbidden love is the heart of the story. I really enjoyed this book. It made me even shed tears .

The story is about Meggie, a little girl, who becomes a woman along the story, and her forbidden love to the priest Ralph de Bricassart. They first met when the story began, at Drogheda in Australia, when the family moved to the ranch of the father's aunt, because she needed someone who could manage it. Meggie, along the story looses a lot. She experiences some losses,and even in the end,it ends badly.

During the story were described details about the deep connection between Meggie and the priest. The author relates to the obstacles in their relationsheep. Meggie gets married with some guy she met at the farm, and she is realizes that he is not what she thought he is. She misses the priest and thinks about him all this time, and their realtionsheep develops, but in the end, things get complicated.

The connection between nutrition and behavior

Nowadays, there is more awareness to healthy food and sport activities. It has been discovered in a study, which took place in America on prisoners, that there is a connection between nutrition and behavior. When you add to your nutrition healthy nutrients such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains and vitamin supplements , you will behave much better. In my opinion, food manufacturers should take responsibility for producing healthier food.

/

The food industry these days, is very varied and include a lot of snacks, sweets, and of course, there is the fast /junk food. These kinds of foods are not very healthy. They contain a lot of sugar, additives, and fats. The result of this production is that people get fat, angry, impatient, and more aggresive. We can absolutley blame the manufactorers. They are

responsable for what we eat most of time.

/

Moreover, today there are people who really pay attention to their health and try to keep a good and balanced diet. Sometimes, the values on the packages are false, and it misleads the public. This fact was descovered in a study, which was conducted, apparently, in Britain, by successful researches.The food industry needs to condiser these people, and there are even sick people who really need the exact values.

/

There is no doubt that the food manufactorers are responsible for what we eat, and I think it would be great if they produce more healthy food and less of junk food. Let's start to fight against unhealthy food, because after all, we can only benefit from this, by recieving more patience,peace and a healthy body.
