At the age of 17, Laura inadvertently killed her friend, Douglas.
She was driving and didn't notice the speed limit sign in front of her, so tragedy struck and Laura knocked over a Chevrolet. Douglas, who was sitting inside, died of a broken neck.
That collision changed not only Laura, but also indirectly her future husband, President George W. Bush.
Laura probably did not expect that as a housewife, she could transform The little Bush who loved to drink, did not pay attention, and failed to start a business, into the president of the United States.
How did she do it?
Laura used to be immature and had always been a girl who didn't know the world. But the 17-year-old accident turned Laura's life upside down.
"It's a terrible tragedy. But I have to accept that death is a part of life..."
Laura changed, more silent than ever.
Although the locals knew about the accident, no one blamed her, but she kept crying and blaming herself. It took a long time for Laura to come out of the shadows and start a new life.
She has also become stronger and more cautious, and cherishes the present day.
After graduating from college, Laura became a librarian.
Laura, who has no intention of dating, devotes most of her time to work. Until she was almost 30 years old, she and George W. Bush were introduced to each other.
In fact, Laura had no intention of going on a blind date.
However, Laura's classmate and friend O'Neill, who is also a friend of George W. Bush, thinks that the two are very compatible, so he has been trying to match Laura and Bush. He persuaded Laura for two years before he persuaded Laura to meet George W. Bush.
At this meeting, the two were immediately attracted to each other.
On the night of the acquaintance, the two talked about the stars and the moon and talked about the middle of the night. Laura's eyes followed George W. Bush.
"He's really funny." Laura once said of her impression of her husband.
"If there's love at first sight in this world, then I'm right for Laura."
The girl he loves is beautiful and humorous, extremely intelligent, and down-to-earth. In George W. Bush's memoirs, he uses countless words to praise Laura.
In the eyes of the lover, Laura is very dazzling.
If it weren't for laura, he wouldn't have talked to a woman the first time he knew her.
Obviously, Bush Jr. is in front of Laura, like a peacock opening the screen, trying to firmly attract Laura with his humorous and funny speech.
He also succeeded.
When the two continue to communicate and deepen their understanding of each other, they find that the original fate is wonderful.
They both studied in the same junior high school, and their childhood home was very close, and they even had many mutual friends.
Maybe Heaven has already drawn a red line for the two of them, just waiting for them to meet each other.
After three months of love, Laura and Bush decided to marry.
Hearing this good news, the elder Bush and his wife were very happy and bad, and they were eager for the two to get married immediately.
So they actually went to church the second month after meeting their parents for a simple wedding ceremony.
After marriage, Bush Jr. continued his own business and did the oil business.
Don't think that coming from a famous political family in the United States, George W. Bush, who graduated from Yale, was a social elite from the beginning.
Bush, who looks handsome and personable on the surface, is actually a rookie.
Bush's friends thought the junior was good, looked at Bush with admiring eyes, and promised to invest in his company. But they certainly did not expect that these investments were adrift.
Because Bush Jr.'s oil company did not find a drop of oil.
However, it can be seen from this that Bush Jr.'s talent is quite good at fooling people and is suitable for being a politician.
If the entrepreneurship fails, it will be when Bush Jr. does not have a good vision.
But Laura never expected that Bush was still an alcoholic.
If she had known about this on the day of the blind date, it is estimated that Laura would have kicked Bush Jr. long ago.
But they are all married, what else can they do, they can only look at their husbands, don't let him make trouble.
George W. Bush was proud of it.
"The thing I'm most proud of is my super alcohol intake, and I don't get drunk at every party."
In order to become the president of a country, George W. Bush finally gave up drinking. It is said that Laura forced her husband to quit:
"Either put down the bottle or I'll go"
Bush, who knew that Laura had put up with it, eventually hugged his wife and gave up drinking.
It has to be said that marrying Laura is Bush's luck.
It is precisely because Laura has a cautious and restrained personality that she can help her husband brake in time when Bush Jr. makes inappropriate moves.
For example, when kissing the wife of the president of Ukraine, kissing people indiscriminately, the action is too intimate! Fortunately, there was Laura dragging her husband the side.
On how to transform her husband into the president of the United States, Laura has the most to say.
She became a good helper.
Laura will not quietly ask George W. Bush to change his bad faults. It's just that when Bush Jr. goes out of line, Laura will circle the field.
In fact, the way husband and wife get along is to quarrel with each other less, more compromise and tolerance, and the two go hand in hand.
Like Laura, in order to help George W. Bush through the presidential campaign, she gradually changed from an introverted and quiet girl to a woman who was good at speech.
Like George W. Bush, he is willing to quit decades of alcohol addiction for the sake of his family.
For each other, to become better, this is the way people get along with each other.
In 2009, George W. Bush's presidency ended.
He bought a farm, lived in seclusion with his family in the fields, and enjoyed the leisurely days of retirement with peace of mind, and his two daughters brought them a bunch of small grandchildren, and their later years were very happy.
In the past, Laura had tried to adapt herself to the role of the politician's wife for him. Now at the end of his life, Bush Jr. only wants to accompany his family, and she has been with her for 44 years to the end of her life.
