Story Review of A Service of Love

O. Henry's "A Service of Love" is a very interesting story. It is about a young, artistic couple named Jim and Delia who are facing the challenges of poverty and their shared passion for art. Despite only being able to afford one art lesson per week, they take turns attending. They each secretly sacrificed for each other to help with their partners' artistic growth. Jim works very hard as a cab driver to pay for Delia's lessons, while Delia also made big sacrifices to fund Jim's. When their hidden efforts are revealed, their love deepens, and they keep pursuing their artistic dreams together. This heartwarming story beautifully shows the power of love and sacrifice they made and respecting each others’ passion. 


This story showed a lot of what the power of love can do. The power of love can be very strong. It can help people in lots of ways. The power of love can bring people together and strengthen relationships. People sometimes see love over everything else around them which could be dangerous, but can also give them the bravery to face their problems. Helping your loved ones can give more motivation than for your own good and it is also a chance for people to work together and solve big problems. In the story, the power of love helped Delia and Jim face their poverty and kept their artistic passion. The power of love created by the couple als helped them alot. Love can overcome anything if it is strong enough. Love can be an object, an event or a bond. Love can be with anything and is everywhere. When you are not careful, it can become a trap, but if you are willing to sacrifice and are careful, love can be the best tool and weapon to defeat your problems. Love creates great bonds that make helping each other easier. Sacrifices can be made in love, but it will always lead to an excellent ending.


The novel "A Service of Love'' also showed how sacrifices have to be made for a happy ending. Sacrifices are not always bad. They can get you better and newer things for the worse things you give to it. Even if your reward from your sacrifice might not be what you think, you will always be rewarded for something good. Sacrifices can be big and small. They can be for your own good or for others. When making choices like sacrificing, whatever you think is more valuable you should get or leave. In the story, both Delia and Jim sacrifice for each other and get rewarded with their partners’ happiness and love. They decided that their love is more important than what they will lose. Love can stay for way longer than objects so I think they made the right decision. Choices when sacrificing are different between people. Things and emotions have different meanings to everyone. When your sacrifices might cause something bad to others, ask for their opinion before action. Sacrifices can be a good deal and can be bad so be careful before making the choice. Everything has costs and the loss or sacrifice of things you own are needed for a good deal.


Everyone has a passion and goal to be their aim of their work. It is important to notice and support each other’s passion. Passion is something some people like and is working towards to improve. Everyone has a passion. It helps you to find a goal and a hobby that you like to do when you are bored. People can have different passions and those who have similar ones can become friends more easily. Passion is a very important part of everyone and it should always be kept and protected. In the story, Delia and Jim respected each other’s artistic passions. They sacrificed themselves for their partner’s passion which brought them love in the end. Respecting and helping others with their passion and goal can also help yourself. If they succeeded, they would thank you for the help and care you put into them. Passion can create lots of things. It can bring happiness and make people feel proud. Passion is needed by everyone and should always be supported. You should always be able to do what you enjoy. Don’t let work and evil people affect you. Everyone should support those around them with their goals, dreams and their passion.


In conclusion, the story "A Service of Love" tells the reader a wonderful story which teaches them some life lessons. This story is about a couple called Delia and Jim. They love each other very much and they see love more valuable than anything else. Their power of love helped them with their poverty and gave them happiness. They sacrificed things of their own to help their partner which gave both of them a wonderful day. Sometimes sacrifices for others are just as worth it as the ones for yourself. Their sacrifices were for each other’s passion and they respected each other’s hobbies and supported them with gifts and money. The gifts which were not very useful were very worth it because of how it bonded the couple even more.
