  1. Though i've been okay, this is how life feels lately: arduous adjective | AHR-juh-wus Definition 1 a : hard to accomplish or achieve : difficult b : marked by great labor or effort : strenuous 2 : hard to climb : steep "To forgive is the most arduous pitch human nature can arrive at." When Richard Steele published that line in The Guardian in 1713, he was using arduous in what was apparently a fairly new way for English writers in his day: to imply that something was steep or lofty as well as difficult or strenuous. Steele's use is one of the earliest documented in English for that meaning, but he didn't commit it to paper until almost 150 years after the first uses of the word in its "strenuous" sense. Although the "steep" sense is newer, it is still true to the word's origins; arduous derives from the Latin arduus, which means "high," "steep," or "difficult."

  17. Thank you for your wonderful comments. i know and believe me, i am grateful, people would like to see more. In order to write that, for me, there must be a reason, a story, something powerful to draw me back. I don't know yet what that may be and frankly, with these two, now three, i don't know if i want to go there. I like knowing they are all in a good place and happy. But i do appreciate you reading and letting me know how you feel. Thank you again. tim
