 A child holds the cross as believers sing and dance at the river Tundzha, as they celebrate Epiphany in the town of Kalofer, Bugaria, on Friday Traditionally, an Eastern Orthodox priest throws a cross in the river and it is believed that the one who retrieves it will be healthy through the year .

I took a similar photo! Mine is Christmas light reflecting on a rainy street. Very nice! Mine is a reflection of the light in the St. John's River as it goes through downtown Jacksonville. Here's a shot I took of the city skyline:  Jacksonville's Skyline by ironchapman, on Flickr The first shot I posted comes from right around the reflection near the left side of the bridge. |

Excellence of character, then, is a state concerned with choice, lying in a mean relative to us, this being determined by reason and in the way in which the man of practical wisdom would determine it. Now it is a mean between two vices, that which depends on excess and that which depends on defect.
