#5 What makes a good life?

1. hindsight

example: 

Using hindsight a story can be told with a better understanding of all the contributing factors. 

2. persistence

example: 

The few cases where the government is not monarchical, as in Arabia, seem to represent the persistence of every ancient condition. 

3. dedicated

example: 

Once a benefit is established, it creates a constituency fiercely dedicated to defending it. 

4. conflict

example: 

Of course, the ultimate responsibility for the present conflict without doubt lies with the aggressor. 

5. bicker

example: 

Whenever the phone rings - about once every ten minutes - they bicker over who must answer it. 

6. glamorous

example: 

The Hollywood film idols of the 1940s were glamorous figures, adored by millions.
