There's Always Time to Write
This article is an exploration of the concept I touched on in the poem, I Write Everywhere. But it also came from a realization I had one day when writing one particularly lengthy comment on Facebook. Two things came from this comment. First, was “wow” how long is this comment. It ended up being 300 plus words. The second was, well if I have time to sit and write a 300 plus word comment, I have time to write 300 or more words a day towards finishing a story, or writing some poems. So, then, what was I doing with my time? Clearly nothing as productive as I could be. So what did this mean to me? It meant that it was time for me to take my own advice. And that’s what I started to do.

Scientists Found Extremely Rare Mummy Portraits in Egypt
Scientists Found Extremely Rare Mummy Portraits in Egypt Since most of us associate the word "mommy" with the spooky characters from some scary movies, you might get a chill when you hear it. However, mummies have actually taught us a lot about ancient civilizations, their rulers, and how people dealt with losing their loved ones. Ancient Egyptians are the ones who are most well-known globally for their mummies because they believed that, under some circumstances, some type of existence after death was possible Why did they believe in this? Because they were, for the most part, deeply connected to their natural environment. They observed the natural cycles around them, such as how the sun rose every day followed by the moon or how new life was always sprouting from plants even after they had died. This is why they insisted on mummifying the human body and giving it a furnished room, sort of like giving it a fully functional apartment of its own the cycle of death and resurrection played a part in this process, and the ancient Egyptians practiced certain rituals like mummification, which involved using substances like honey, resins, and incense to preserve the body. King Tut's mummy is the most well-known of these; he was a young pharaoh who ruled over Egypt over three thousand years ago. The difficulty in finding these ancient Royal tombs is that most of these burial grounds had previously been looted and plunder His mummy was enclosed in a total of three coffins, one of which was made of gold. The objects discovered in his tomb provided a glimpse into ancient Egypt, and studying his mummy helped us understand the culture and customs prevalent at the time of his death. We also learned about his family by examining his DNA. When it was first discovered in 1922, people were excited because it had not been robbed like many other previously discovered Royal tombs a condition called malaria and a foot issue that would have made it difficult for him to walk [Music] Ramses II was a different Pharaoh of Egypt who ruled for 68 years, which was a long time in those days. He was renowned for his building and expansion projects, and many remnants of his rule can still be seen today, such as a sizable statue of him. Scientists hypothesized that Ramses II, who was around six feet tall and lived to be about 90 years old, may have had a disorder that impacted his spine at the time based on the fact that he looked like his mother Recall the robbers I mentioned before; they are likely to blame for Ramses II's ending up in a plain coffin in a hidden collection of Royal mummies at Deer All Bihari that was found in 1881. Thank goodness his travels had been documented on his wrappings so archaeologists could recognize him. The procedure was extremely laborious; in fact, mummification in ancient Egypt might take up to 70 days to complete. A special speaker would make a speech tailored to the situation while carefully treating the body and drying it with a salt known as natron. also using linen and resin to create the ancient Egyptians believed that everyone made this journey after passing away, so they filled their tombs with items and paintings to aid the person in their spiritual travels in addition to making the body look more lifelike and wrapping it in cloth. King Tut's tomb, for example, was decorated with intricate artwork that depicted his journey to the afterlife from his burial procession to his Passage through the Underworld Speaking of how important this journey was, people also placed food in these ancient tombs. In King Tut's tomb, archaeologists discovered 36 jars of vintage beverages and eight baskets of fruit that were believed to have been left there to aid him in his journey to the afterlife.

Close race in Slovakia election as vote counting continues
In the early stages of vote counting on Sunday, the populist SMER-SSD party, led by former Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico, emerged as the frontrunner, despite exit polls indicating that the liberal Progressive Slovakia party was in the lead. As of the latest update, with 90.15% of votes counted, SMER-SSD holds the top position with 23.69% of the partial votes, while Progressive Slovakia is currently in second place with 15.68%. Two earlier exit polls had predicted a narrow victory for Progressive Slovakia, which would require the support of smaller parties to form a government in the 150-seat parliament. The center-left Hlas (Voice) party, led by former Smer-SD member and Prime Minister from 2018-2020 Peter Pellegrini, is a close third with 15.43% of the votes. Hlas may play a pivotal role in the formation of a coalition government. Prior to the election, Pellegrini did not express a preference for either of the larger parties, but noted that his party was more aligned with Fico's SMER-SSD.

I Am SORRY
I am sorry. Three simple words that hold so much weight. They say that acknowledging your mistakes is the first step towards redemption, but it's not always that easy. Sometimes, saying sorry can feel like opening a Pandora's box of emotions. Guilt, shame, regret - all come flooding in, threatening to drown you.

Chosen
The Life Of A Writer Is Lots Of Hard Work And A Little Inspiration. In all honesty, I really don’t feel that I chose to become a writer, I think it was more of a case of it choosing me. Something, or somebody, reached down from the sky and touched me and that was it.

The End
In the quiet stillness of a late summer evening, Sarah stood on the edge of the world. She gazed out over the vast expanse of the ocean, its waters shimmering with the fading light of the setting sun. It had been a long journey to reach this point, a journey that had taken her across continents and through countless trials. But now, she was here, at the end.

The Radiant Sea
In a land where the sky and sea danced together in hues of azure, there existed a small coastal village named Lumina. The sun, like a benevolent artist, painted the ocean with golden strokes every morning, casting a warm glow that embraced the hearts of the villagers.

The Good Book
Introduction Last week I bought an album at The Beehive in Alnwick, "The Good Book" by Melanie Safka When I buy vinyl I like them to be special. These days it seems to be coloured vinyl or a picture disc and that is it, which is not very interesting at all.
