Aghast
I'm aghast at the ghastly absence of this word from our list. Does it stand a ghost of a chance of making the grade? I, obviously, hope so.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.

I guess I'm an aghastnostic.

Re: Aghast
Aghast is etymologically kin to ghost. I am past being aghast at things that transpire. I am more boggled.
It is dark at night, but the Sun will come up and then we can see.
