Re: Hey everybody...and I have Question.

Sooo, from everyone else's as well as yours, Sigra is basically a
physical conquering of other people, which i can't really use. I need
a word for Overcome as meaning to go through a tough trial or
experience and overcome it. You know, a struggle within yourself. You
wanna quit, but you keep pushing, and overcome.

sorry for being such a bother...but this is kinda critical for me to
get that exact word...thanks so much to you all. *thumbs up*
