Holds Fast To The Center Of Everything
There is one word that stands the test of time and holds fast to the center of everything. Though everyone will try at least once in their life to move around this word, but in fact, unknowingly, they use it every moment of the day. Young or old, awake or in sleep, human or animal, this word stands fast. It belongs to everyone, to all living things, but no one can master it. The word is?
Gravity.
Leave a Grieving Wife
If you throw me from the window,
I’ll leave a grieving wife.
Bring me back, but in the door and,

Humans and Animals
I am important to both human beings and animals. Both search for me but it is hard to find me. I travel to benefit them. What am I?
A scent or smell. A scent is important to both humans and animals and both search for scents (for different reasons). A scent travels through the air to benefit humans and animals, again, for different reasons.
