The Valley of Headless Men
Each of us has our own daily grind that tends to become repetitive, monotonous, and uninteresting. This is largely because there isn’t anything new in cities and towns that we have explored more times than we might care to count. Yet, there are still places in the world that remain wild, unexplored, and primal. One such place is The Valley of Headless Men, known formally as The Nahanni National Park Reserve.

The Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW), our modern heroes as they are called.

Angel Numbers
Introduction I thought I had finished with all the interesting numbers on my Vocal posts mainly going through the ones that matched with what I regarded as significant years and some with repeated numbers, though one of my favourites was story 1234 which, for obvious reasons was a Ramones playlist.

The argument for how the world began and where is it heading. Can mankind really solve the mystery of the universe?
A profound quote attributed to Galileo Galilei, says; “You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him find it within himself”. This emphasizes the idea that true understanding comes from self-discovery rather than being taught by someone else. It’s a principle that resonates with the Socratic method of teaching, which is based on guiding someone to their own realizations rather than simply providing them with facts.

It was a sad day today to check my Tolkien group chat, which consists of a few book club friends and nerds, and see the shared news that Bernard Hill had died. It was not how I wanted to start my summer break from school. (I'm still grading Finals and submitting grades to the registrar.)
