Why this word is great
BLESSEDNESS — [Noun] The condition or state of being blessed, especially in a spiritual sense of enjoying divine favor and holiness. From Middle English 'blessednesse', formed from the adjective 'blessed' (meaning consecrated, holy) + the noun-forming suffix '-ness' (denoting a state or condition). Unlike "happiness," which implies a general, often transient feeling of pleasure, or "beatitude," which is a formal, theological term for supreme blessedness, "blessedness" denotes a profound, settled grace—the quiet assurance of being looked upon. It is the worn smoothness of a rosary in a steady hand, the scent of rain on dry earth after a long prayer, and the unshakable calm of a face after long acceptance; a peace not of this world, but residing stubbornly within it.
