Life
Fiction: False
I have often found myself uttering the phrase, “It’s just one of those days.” Thinking about that phrase makes me wonder just what “one of those days” is and how I can turn it into, “It’s a great and blessed day” instead.

Life
Fiction: False

Life
Fiction: False
As the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks against the United States approaches, communities across the country are planning ways to honor those who died on that day.
