Book Description
Fortunate Higgins was a daughter of Uganda. The fortunate and unfortunate events in her life would take her from her city in the African nation all the way to the United States where she faced unimaginable struggles, abuse, deception, betrayal, and heartache. In this powerful and inspirational memoir, Fortunate looks back on her life and all the people who both helped and harmed her during her journey. Fortunate's misfortunes seem to be unrelenting. The first part of her story, "Who the Bleep Did I Marry?" chronicles her 2006 arranged marriage to Gregory, a complete stranger and a man with secrets of his own. Gregory took her from everything she knew in Uganda and brought her to America, where he isolated her and psychologically abused her. After the birth of their child, her situation grew more desperate. Her need to escape in order to protect herself and her baby was now greater than ever. But Gregory wouldn't let her go that easily... Fortunate's next section tells the story of Andrew, a man she thought could provide relief from her husband but managed to hurt her in even crueler ways. Throughout their tumultuous relationship, Fortunate would encounter the worst tragedy a person can face and would emerge with a determination to change her life and finally find peace.

Contingency and Fortune in Aquinas's Ethics
Author: John BowlinPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521620192
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
In this study John Bowlin argues that Aquinas's moral theology receives much of its character and content from an assumption about our common lot: the good we desire is difficult to know and to will, in particular because of contingencies of various kinds - within ourselves, in the ends and objects we pursue, and in the circumstances of choice. Since contingencies are fortune's effects, Aquinas insists that it is fortune that makes good choice difficult. Bowlin then explicates Aquinas's treatment of a number of topics in light of this difficulty: the moral and theological virtues, the first precepts of the natural law, the voluntariness of virtuous action, and the happiness available to us in this life. By noting that Aquinas proceeds with an eye on fortune's threats to virtue, agency, and happiness, Bowlin places him more precisely in the history of ethics, among Aristotle, Augustine, and the Stoics.
