"The Mystery of Life" I am about to blow your mind, and this is no exaggeration because what I will reveal in this amazing story will have you say, "Wow!". In fact, this un-common knowledge may even shock you since it has a lot to do with you, personally, and I dare say nobody has ever heard this news before! This mind-boggling information has been kept a secret from human awareness, almost as if it were a hidden treasure holding the key to what powers and compels our natural existence. It's only because of modern advancements in communications such as the Internet and P.C.s, in addition to technological breakthroughs in scientific research equipment, that I can reveal what has been hidden from humanity since the dawn of time. The puzzle pieces are no longer held ransom in shrouded mystery, leading me to believe I have solved life’s riddle!

Sh(un)Common Knowledge
You, my friends, are LIARS! Don’t get offended or too hasty, because I did call you my friends first. I’m a LIAR TOO! We all are. Our parents lied, our grandparents lied and our kids will follow suit. Our leaders, politicians, and preachers ALL LIE! The billboards, the banks, and everything on the News, our businesses, the scientists, and even your boss too.. ALL LIARS! If anyone has ever told you that they don't lie, it is a lie! This is not to pass judgement on anyone. I can assure you that my “liar-liar pants” have been on fire for 36 years. No, this is more of a cordial invite to a dinner party.

Assumptions
Assumptions Let me start off by saying this, I know some females and males but more so females, are not going to like the ending of this, and to that I say, if you don’t like it you most likely did those things to someone you were with and felt it was justified for your reasons. If your reasons are because he cheated on you or he put hands on you whenever he was drunk or mad about something that you didn’t do or say or did say to him then cool I understand. But if you feel what you did was justified because he didn’t give you the attention you wanted, your wrong, you should have left him, period. Even if you did it because you found out he cheated, wrong you should have just left him. There are some things you just don’t do.

The One Drinking the Red
The clock strikes nine. It is the morning of the momentous day and I am sitting in my small apartment, calculating the odds of death by impatience. This is not hyperbole – I am in the throes of a full-blown, anticipatory-anxiety attack. There are nine hours to endure before our scheduled meetup, and they stretch before me in a perspiration- and palpitation-filled time warp of shrinking walls. Will those hours feel longer if I fill them with thoughts of her? It makes no difference; I can think of nothing else.

The Pandemic Shopaholic
It was February 2020, I was told to pack up of my classroom and my students and to vacate the premises until further notice, we are experiencing a pandemic and the state of Georgia has been shut down for 30 days. I immediately thought is this the end I went straight to the grocery store and stocked up on supplies and necessities. When covid-19 was at its peak of contagious spread and there was very little information on the virus and the effects, all stores were shut down except the grocery stores, so I went crazy shopping for supplies and essentials on line. I also had extra time on my on my hands because I was out of work, so I incorporated a workout regimen in my daily routine. I was exercising at least 3 times a week, riding my bike, walking, using my exercise equipment and watching my diet. Well with all my hard work I lost 40lbs and I lost my mind shopping, let me give you a journey of my shopping anxiety.

Convivencia
For nearly eight hundred years Jew and Christian and Muslim had lived together in Sicily in a dynamic tension that had made it one of the creative centers of Europe. Sicilian Civilization had reached its peak under the Fatimids, who joined to the universal Islamic concern for justice an openness to other wisdoms. But even after the Normans, whose kings were little more than raiders and rough warlords, had taken the island for the Bishop of Rome, they relied on Muslim and Jewish scholars to run their courts. Their Angevin and Aragonese successors had done the same.

Taking long hard sips, the doorbell rings and she began to put on her game face.
