It was the time of the darkness covering the valley.
The animals were in search of water to quench their thirst.
It was dry
Dry and hot!
The dear ran along the sandy beach of the dried-up river
There was a time,
The river carried water,
Soothing and cooling.
But now it was with shattered bones
Scattered here and there.
The tiger was waiting the and
The sand has burnt his mouth
Mad with hunger and thirst,
It wanted to taste the dried and scared blood of the
Pray.
Dear knew that
It was waiting for her blood.
The dust storm covered her eyes
Covering her eyes.
Temporarily in the dark,
It ran
Out of the sand
And,
Waiting the cruel fangs of the predator
But none... None at all.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Understanding the P. Diddy Controversy and the 50 Cent Factor
For over three decades, the name Sean "Diddy" Combs was synonymous with the pinnacle of American success. From the glitz of the "White Parties" in the Hamptons to the chart-topping dominance of Bad Boy Records, Diddy wasn't just a mogul; he was a gatekeeper of culture. However, by 2025, the music industry’s most polished facade finally cracked. What followed was a legal and social collapse so comprehensive that it transformed a global icon into a cautionary tale of power, ego, and accountability.
