#chapter 1: First Date
William and his parents were always Christians and their denomination is Seventh-day Adventists and every Saturday they went to church, because it is the day considered by Adventists as a day of worship and Antonica is also of the same denomination. In the year 2018 in the month of September William with only 17 years old on a beautiful Saturday after the end of the service, he saw a beautiful young woman in a blue dress standing in front of the church door waiting for her mother, William was attracted and found for knowing the young woman well and invites her to lunch at his house, it turns out that Antonica was not alone she had a friend on her side who were walking together and that same friend convinced her to accept the invitation and Antonica ended up accepting, William enthusiastic and happy took them to his house...
what happened at lunch?
Arriving home william had not warned his parents that he would bring a new friend, because he himself did not even know that he would meet someone who would force him to invite that day, but his parents understood and dispensed with the main room of the house so that William could have lunch with his friend, William's older sister named Luisa André, helped him prepare the table and bought juices to accompany the surprise lunch that her brother made, during lunch Antonica couldn't stop admiring William's gesture, she felt she asked herself how a 17-year-old young man has so much experience receiving a friend even though everything is a surprise and without prior preparation? When William's parents approached the table, they welcomed the girls and wished them a good appetite, it was from that moment that Antonica began to understand that William's good gestures and good education come from his parents, after this moment William notes that Antonica was shy to start eating, he offered to serve her a plate of food and of course it was another gesture that made her happy and for a few seconds she also felt loved, she then accepted the plate of food and started to eat , the moment was marked by joy and a lot of coexistence, but she always had a shy way and few words, where did her friend get to ask her what she was feeling or what was going on? With a smile on her face, Antonica responds saying that it's her way of being, but that everything was fine.
After lunch
After lunch ended and 10 minutes passed, William invited Antonica to a private conversation where he would like to get to know her better, since they are of the same religion but never had the privilege of getting to know each other better, that's where William started questioning her who her parents were and in the course of her answer there was a surprise, that after all Antonica's mother is a friend of William's mother, the two surprised started laughing because they didn't know that their parents have a friendship bond and that many times her mother had already visited william's parents' house, he noticed that she didn't talk much about her father so he questioned her who was her father? Unfortunately, she replied that she never got to know her biological father because when she was born, her father had refused to give birth, it was not a very good moment when she told him about her father, William felt a little ashamed and for having questioned why not I expected that sad answer, but Antonica calmed him down saying that he had no problems and that in fact her father was also still alive and that at any moment she could meet him if God allowed it.
After talking for long minutes, Antonica and her friend noticed that it was getting late and that they needed to go home, William asked for Antonica's phone number and she gave it to him, she then said goodbye to William and they left.

When the Pyramids Learned to Breathe
The desert was silent in the way only ancient places can be—not empty, but listening. At dawn, the first light touched the limestone faces of the pyramids, and the shadows they cast stretched long and deliberate, as if time itself were waking slowly. To the west, beyond the city’s dust and noise, the old giants stood where they always had, unmoved by centuries, untouched by doubt.

Benjamin Franklin: The Mind That Helped Build a Nation
Benjamin Franklin was not born into greatness; he built it piece by piece with curiosity, discipline, and an unshakable belief in the power of learning. Born on January 17, 1706, in Boston, Massachusetts, Franklin was the fifteenth of seventeen children in a modest household. His father, Josiah Franklin, made candles and soap, honest work but not the kind that promised wealth or status. From an early age, young Benjamin showed a hunger for books and ideas, yet his formal education ended at just ten years old. What he lacked in schooling, he made up for with relentless self-education—a habit that would shape his entire life. Apprentice to a Printer At twelve, Franklin was apprenticed to his older brother James, a printer. The print shop became Benjamin’s classroom. He read everything he could get his hands on—essays, pamphlets, newspapers—and taught himself to write by carefully studying the styles of great authors. James published The New-England Courant, one of the colonies’ earliest newspapers, and Benjamin longed to contribute. Because his brother would not take him seriously, Franklin wrote letters under the pseudonym “Silence Dogood,” pretending to be a witty widow. The letters were published and widely admired. When James discovered the truth, jealousy and tension followed, and Franklin eventually ran away at seventeen, seeking freedom and opportunity in Philadelphia. Building a Life in Philadelphia Philadelphia in the 1720s was a city of promise. Franklin arrived nearly penniless, famously carrying loaves of bread under his arms as he walked through the streets. Yet he possessed something more valuable than money: determination. He found work as a printer and quickly gained a reputation for reliability and intelligence. Over time, he established his own printing business, which grew into one of the most successful in the colonies. Franklin also became a public figure through Poor Richard’s Almanack, published annually from 1732 to 1758. Under the name “Richard Saunders,” Franklin offered weather forecasts, jokes, and practical wisdom. Sayings like “Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise” reflected his belief in hard work and common sense. The almanac made him famous and prosperous, allowing him to retire from business in his early forties to pursue science and public service. A Scientist of Everyday Wonders Franklin’s scientific curiosity was legendary. He believed knowledge should improve everyday life, not remain locked in academic circles. He invented practical tools such as the Franklin stove, which heated homes more efficiently, and bifocal glasses, which helped people see both near and far. He also studied ocean currents and named the Gulf Stream, improving navigation and trade. His most famous scientific experiment involved electricity. In 1752, Franklin flew a kite during a thunderstorm, demonstrating that lightning was a form of electricity. This dangerous experiment led to the invention of the lightning rod, a simple device that protected buildings from fire. Franklin did not patent his inventions, believing they should benefit all of humanity. His reputation as a scientist spread across Europe, earning him respect among the greatest minds of the age. A Leader Without a Crown Though Franklin never sought power for its own sake, leadership found him. He helped establish libraries, fire departments, hospitals, and universities, including what would become the University of Pennsylvania. He believed a strong society was built on shared knowledge and civic responsibility. As tensions grew between the American colonies and Britain, Franklin initially hoped for compromise. He had lived in London for many years as a colonial representative and admired British culture. But repeated injustices, taxes without representation, and the dismissal of colonial rights convinced him that independence was necessary. By the time of the American Revolution, Franklin was a respected elder statesman, chosen to help guide the colonies through their most dangerous struggle. Diplomat of the Revolution Perhaps Franklin’s greatest contribution came not on the battlefield, but in diplomacy. Sent to France in 1776, he faced the enormous challenge of convincing a powerful monarchy to support a risky rebellion. Franklin’s charm, wit, and reputation worked wonders. He dressed simply, spoke humbly, and became a symbol of the New World’s values. French philosophers admired him; common people celebrated him. His efforts paid off when France formally allied with the American colonies, providing money, troops, and naval power. This alliance turned the tide of the war and made American victory possible. Without Franklin’s diplomacy, the Revolution might have failed. Shaping a New Nation After the war, Franklin returned home as a hero. Though elderly and in poor health, he continued to serve. In 1787, at the age of 81, he attended the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. While he did not speak often, his words carried great weight. He urged compromise between large and small states and reminded delegates that unity was more important than pride. His calm wisdom helped shape the United States Constitution. Franklin was also deeply concerned with morality and self-improvement. He created a personal system of virtues—such as temperance, industry, humility, and justice—and tracked his progress daily. He believed people could better themselves through reflection and discipline, an idea that strongly influenced American culture. Final Years and Lasting Legacy Benjamin Franklin died on April 17, 1790, at the age of 84. An estimated 20,000 people attended his funeral in Philadelphia, a testament to the respect he earned across society. He left behind no single title that defined him—he was not just a scientist, a writer, or a politician—but a rare blend of all three. Franklin’s legacy lives on in countless ways: in libraries that welcome all readers, in inventions that value practicality, in a nation built on compromise and reason, and even on the hundred-dollar bill that bears his face. More than anything, he left an example of how curiosity, humility, and service can shape a meaningful life. Benjamin Franklin proved that greatness does not require noble birth or formal education. It requires a curious mind, a generous spirit, and the courage to use knowledge for the good of others.

My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.
