Riddle Me This

How about a riddle to start of the week? Put your thinking caps on and riddle me this:

I am the beginning of sorrow, and the end of sickness. You cannot express happiness without me, yet I am in the midst of crosses. I am always in risk, yet never in danger. You may find me in the sun, but I am never out of darkness.


What am I?

Go ahead, post your answers in the comment section. Good Luck!

Oh, did I mention a $15 B&N gift card is up for grabs to the first person who answers the riddle correctly? Well, it is!

I'd say death, though the happiness part makes me think not.

Stephanie Damore said...

Good guess! But nope, it's not death.

The letter "S" :)

Joshua McCune said...

Oooh, I think H.S. has it.

Stephanie Damore said...

Oh yes, H.S. you got it! Wow, that was fast. Congrats. Send me your address so I can mail the gift card out. My email is steph.damore@gmail.com

Letter S. But It looks like I'm late :(

Stephanie Damore said...

Good effort Void, but alas, you are late :(

I was going to say death. I see that I would have been wrong, though. Congrats, H.S.! :-)

Diana Paz said...

I had no idea. At all. I'm so relieved that someone said the answer, and ended my suspense!

Congrats H.S.!

Laura Martone said...

Congrats, H. S.! And what a wonderful riddle, Steph - very clever indeed.

Thanks Laura and Di, I'm glad you liked the riddle. My mom said that it was too easy. We'll see next time, Mom.
