The Cephalophore's message
The Sands of Time
My dears,
Do not be afraid of your unique self. If you are overwhelmed, self-soothing through addictive, excessive vagus nerve stimulation that promises connections, doesn’t work. Technology uses algorithms to manipulate beliefs. You are not smarter than ever.
Heed spiritual guidance. Accept responsibility. Act according to your nature. Social revolution does not support entitled individuals, or what is defined solely by gender, race or religion.
Look at me. I am the ancestral reptilian chthonic goddess, martyred by beheading, a laughing cephalophore. My serpentine tendrils wave, turning energy to stone that crumbles into the sands of time.

Planar Reality
Damien wiped down the seat belt and head and arm rests. Since COVID, getting on a plane required a new ritual. After stowing his backpack, he sat back. Damien became familiar with the arm controls and adjusted the screen. He looked at the flight path. It was formed from a dissipating thread of jet trails, forming the treasure map that led to the dreamed of promised land. He had worked hard to be worthy of the dreams he had once imagined.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.
