Happy National Unity Day to you, too, mamag15, and best of luck on your 4 tasks!
Also read your post on Aussie's post, and empathize. Life is so very difficult for some of us, but I firmly believe that the Lord only gives heartrending tests those He loves best. Outwardly they are fire and vengeance, inwardly they are light and mercy. This world is a shadow of the real, a place to grow our spiritual qualities, a testing ground, and nothing more. The more we become attached to it, the farther away we are from God and His world of light. Detachment, consultation to see if there's a different or better way to handle problems, and, if necessary, acceptance and submission -- those are the keys to contentment.
Best of luck -- and, yes, I do believe in luck, too -- to you mamag15! Will say a prayer for your difficulties.

Beautiful words Luvswesterns. You just brought tears to my eyes. SometimesI feel like I am being tested beyond my capabilities but I God has a plan for me when I finish all my hard work. I will be rewarded but God will get the Glory and Praise for He is with me through all my trials and tribulations. Blessing my Dear friend.

Blessings to you, too, dear mamag15, and big cyber hugs as well. So, how did your quizzes go? I could almost hear your sigh of relief here in So. Cal. when you were done with 'em! Hang in there, my friend. Hang in there. Paper will do well, too.

Hi, luvswesterns.I missed two questions on my one test, there were 5 questions and each one was worth 5 points and one was not graded. It was just a quiz to see how much I know about what I need to do to become an educator through Liberty University. The other one I am procrastinating on. I still have to work on my paper. I plan n getting things done today so I can get a head start for week 2.

Being ahead of the game is good, so set a goal and work for it. Try a few minutes of relaxation / breathing exercises before you begin each day. It really helps clear the head and aids in one's ability to focus.

I wish I had Windows 7 on my new laptop. It's got Windows 10 and I hate it. But I've been told converting back to W 7 on the laptop wouldn't work.

Windows 10 isn't easy! Still trying to get it like I want it. It is very different from 7 which I loved. Had Windows 7 Pro which I loved but was starting to have some trouble. Finally found out how to put "favorites" folder on desktop so that might help some. I did get a Windows 10 book, but am trying most of this without reading!

Hi mamag, I think that is the case with a lot of people. You are doing so well in your studies and I know the rest of your papers will be just as good as you do put such an effort into them. Love you back and hugs,

Thank you, Sweety. I can always count you to make me feel good no matter how down I get.
Beautiful swallowtail, I do love to see butterflies flittering around flowers and bushes, it is a pity that they live for so short a time. They are a wonderful icon of the resurrection aand a sure sign of spring.
today as a mystery
at first I thought it would be a animal but it turned into a beautiful butterfly
