Benign.
That’s it. I can’t think of a better word. Odd, isn’t it? Fantastic isn’t the best word. Love isn’t. Benign is. No harm. No foul. God bless.
Terry Heaton’s benign. God bless.

Benignant news indeed…amen.

Benign huh. I never really use that word but maybe I’ll try using it and see if I get lucky or something.

Benign is indeed a wonderful word, but it’s wonder is in the relief from a web of fear. Much better if the fear could be removed altogether?

True. But I think “triumphant” is a very good runner-up.

With apologies for posting this here, but: Ever since your remodeling, I cannot access your main page; it just comes up blank, except for a banner ad at the top. Same thing when I click on tag links, nothing but the gray background. I can follow links from other sites to specific archived pages here, but that’s it. Although I’m using Internet Explorer on a Mac (OS 10.3.9), I’d be surprised if I’m the only one having this problem. Unfortunately, there’s (apparently?) no email link on your archived pages, so perhaps you’re not hearing from folks like me as you might expect. I do miss my daily buzz! Best regards.

i think that yes is the best word, although if i needed to hear the word benign that it would definately be music to my ears. It seems that life always is about your frame of reference but the beauty of being a human is our capacity for empathy. God bless indeed.
