The Jewel That Whispered Names
It shimmered brighter with every secret told.
An emerald known as The Serpent’s Eye was said to contain voices. Every owner reported hearing faint murmurs when they slept.
A duchess wore it at her wedding — and collapsed before reaching the altar. Witnesses said they heard the gem whisper her name again and again, growing louder until it shattered.
The shards were scattered across Europe. Decades later, collectors who owned them began disappearing.
All that remained were mirrors in their homes — with names scratched into the glass.

How Can You Have A Highly Sought Out Life for Yourself and Your Hobbies
When we think of our lives and what they have in them, what happens? Do we think that they are highly sought out for ourselves when we start living by doing the hobbies that we enjoy? Most of the time, yes. Our lives are highly sought out because we figure out what we want to do with it, and go after it. Once we get to where we want to be in life how do we look at it? What is it that we do? We look at it as the things we do in life are the things that make our lives what they are. It is all about how we work and put our downtime together at least that is how I like to look at it. Sure we might work ten ten to 12 hours a day but what about when we aren’t working on weekends, we don’t just do yard work and laundry we do other things to keep us busy too. These things are called hobbies, and we put them into our lives so that we live the best lives that we can. This is how highly sought out lives can be given to each and every one of us.
