Word of the Day
beneficence \buh-NEFF-i-suhns\, noun:
The practice of doing good; active goodness, kindness, or charity; bounty springing from purity and goodness
From my grandfather Verus I learned good morals and the government of my temper. From the reputation and remembrance of my father, modesty and a manly character. From my mother, piety and beneficence and abstinence.
--Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

[S]he had disseminated around her what seemed an involuntary aura of beneficence and goodwill.
--John Bayley, Elegy for Iris

On this Day in History 1781 British General Lord Cornwallis surrendered at Yorktown,
effectively bringing an end to the American Revolution. Pleading illness, Cornwallis did not attend the surrender ceremony; his second-in-command, General Charles O'Hara, carried Cornwallis' sword to the American and French commanders. As the British troops marched out to surrender, the British bands played the song "The World Turned Upside Down."

On this Day in History 1812 One month after Napoleon Bonaparte's massive invading force entered a burning and deserted Moscow, the starving French army was forced to begin a hasty retreat out of Russia

You should feel good....you have done it all yourself and have not given up! Just sit back for a while and enjoy the feeling of satisfaction for a job well done! ((((hugs))))

[trussell]

I did a lot of praying, as did the prayer warriors and my friends. I credit God with my success! It would have been nice to pass them all, but I will accept what I was given, and work hard to get the last test done.
Hugs!!

[AZamericonnie]

Oh, good news you've made it home! I will sleep better now! Hon, you need a day of rest so if you have it take it! *Hugs*

[luvie]

You'll get that one done, also with the help of God. He is always there for us if we just ask!

[trussell]

I plan to take it whether they want me to have it or not! :)

I'm going to catch up with FR a little bit and then probably get a few hours sleep before I have to drive another 50 miles to return my rental car. (sure was nice to not worry about my car breaking down on the trip!!)

[trussell]

God has been good to me...and I trust that he will get me through whatever I need help with. I just really appreciate all the prayers of my FR family!

[luvie]

You've got 'em whenever you need 'em! 'Nite, trussell...see ya!

[trussell]

Good night LUV...are you headed to bed or am I?

[luvie]

:o)....both of us, I think!

You need to be bright-eyed in the morning..and I have to go to work! Take care--God bless!
