I’ll never forget how frightened and scared I was the day we left Nauvoo. We left our beautiful home and all of our possessions behind as we began our trek West to the Rocky Mountains. We didn’t want to leave but the persecution had become so bad from the people who hated our religion that we had no choice. They burned down our temple and stole our livestock and reports of members of our church being assaulted or killed were becoming more and more frequent. After my father’s business had been broken into and his printing presses destroyed, we had no other option but to leave. So we sold all the possessions that we could and bought a team of oxen. We loaded everything into the wagon, and started a journey that would last over a thousand miles

Before we moved to the house I live right now we use to live on the other side of Modesto, and I like living there even though it wasn’t

Since the relationship became cold. The husband was ready to leave without saying a word, but when the wife showed up and started talking to the husband's in an aggressive tone through this line “I’m glad you’re leaving! I’m glad you’re leaving! She said. Do you hear?” regardless of that, the husband continued packing his stuff.

Virgil Flinn, my grandpa who I called papaw, was the most admirable person in the world to me. He was the strongest, most proud and selfless person I have known. When people talk about him there is never anything bad to say and they’re always laughing. When he was alive, people viewed him as a leader, and if they knew him they still do.

I told him not to do it, but the poor sod never listens. Aculeo, that fool, just sent himself on a pilgrimage. We don’t even believe in the sorts of things like religion, and by we I mean me, well really Aculeo, but he is the stupid one. Let us just say that I am the remaining sanity in the mind of a senile old man, a senile old man who somehow manages to run across three of the most prominent churches of the Byzantine Empire and have absolutely no clue as to what he is participating in; an unwanted pilgrimage to the Hagia Sophia, San Vitale, and San Appolinare.

Finally, a plea agreement of serving six and half years in federal prison was made. But why and how would this be able to pass? Negative thoughts tried to overcome the husband who was sentenced and the wife who would have to raise the four children alone while her husband would have to be in prison. But instead this couple decided to see this as only a temporary setback. Soon they received good news that with good time and other credit, the husband would only have to serve four years. Time would pass and this debt of prison time would be completed and defeated. There was no room to allow sorrow of depression to set in. A positive mindset had to overcome their thoughts and stand knowing that this will soon pass. According to Seligman optimism aids in individual well-being. Therefore, while having to face this horrible prison sentence, having a positive outlook brought

"Sorry I was just making din......" trailing off mid sentence momentarily stunned into silence, unable to believe it could really be." Yes it's really me baby." with a small smirk as if reading her mind, he continues to ask " so where's my hug?" . Letting out a small cry Esmeralda launches herself into his waiting arms , legs wrapped around his waist and tears streaming down her face, she can not help but laugh as she kisses every inch of her beloved's face “Chris.. oh my god Chris!.”. Gently disentangling her limbs from around him, Chris places her back on her feet softly, taking his love's soft slightly rounded face in both hands continuing to stare into her limpid, soulful eyes with awe ,leaning down to place sweet kisses on her forehead and nose , then one more lingering kiss on her lips. A low whimper escapes her full softly parted lips as he pulled away . “I know, I know I missed you too my love; but I'm here now and I'm not going anywhere mi Vida ." He whispered kissing away the sparkling tears staining Esmeraldas cheeks . With a smile he laughed and said " Now I believe you were saying something about dinner?" ."

Fleurettte had been sitting on one of the many staircases Elswood had to offer. It was a casual day for her, with no excitement, nor nothing to peak her interest. And like many things Fleur hated, it was the feeling of dullness or living dull. If she didn’t have a single ounce of anticipation in her life, it wasn’t as if she was living her life to the fullest. That was until of course, someone had caught her eye. A familiar face appeared in the hallway and she swore she had seen in one of her classes before. His name started with a L or M, but she couldn’t remember. Or care to remember frankly. The boy had never peaked her interest, or maybe he would just for today.

“I don’t know, one day when I was working in the stables they brought in a horse with a broken leg. Grival said the knight riding the horse had probably tried to make the beast shift like a dancer, he also said he’d have to put the poor thing down. I liked that horse a lot, so when no one was looking I went to say good bye, only when I touched it something happened and I could feel the creatures pain as if it was my own. I knew exactly what was wrong with the great animal and after a moment or so of focusing on the wound I left the pain disappear. To this day I don’t know if I did the right thing for the very next day it was out of the stables again with the same knight that had broken it,” Fin explained as the prince changed. Though he

him the money in the form of checks. She told Janice to sign her signature differently on the checks and fill in the amounts. However, leave the dates and the payee blank. She told Janice once she gave Kevin the checks to leave the rest up to her she had a plan. She told Janice to wait an hour and then go to the bank and report that her checks had been stolen and close out her account. Once Janice did her part, Aunt Lucy would do the rest. “I’ll guarantee you Kevin will never forget you after this ordeal” Aunt Lucy said. Janice wanted to know how soon should she put the plan into action. Aunt Lucy told her the sooner the better and call me once you’ve notified the bank that your checks were stolen.

Duncan nodded curtly to Lily, and then added "Indeed we will, my apologies my mind is engaged for the moment" He managed to give her smile before he found himself deep in concentration once more.
