Romania, land of beauty and pride,
With history and culture deep inside,
In March, a special tradition is kept,
Mărțișor, a holiday well-swept.
Red and white intertwined in a cord,
With a small trinket, a flower adored,
Symbolizing the arrival of spring,
A time for new beginnings to bring.
Mărțișor, a celebration of life,
Amidst the cold and dreary strife,
A promise of hope and renewal,
A reminder of nature's annual dual.
Romania, the land of Mărțișor,
A tradition that forever will soar,
With memories and love intertwined,
A symbol of resilience and mankind.

The Bird Nest
Downy tufts puff out, Warmth inside a house of hair, Drowsiness abounds. A/N: I sometimes imagine what it would be like to sleep in a bird nest, provided I can be bird-sized in the fantasy of course. I think it would be cosy! More longer stories to come! -TWW

Don’t Be a Pushover, But Don’t Be Naive Either
The world can be tough. Sometimes being honest can make people take advantage of you while being too tricky can hurt you. The key is finding a balance. Sometimes it’s okay to play dumb to avoid trouble, but don’t be a pushover. Let people know you have limits and will stand up for yourself.

Death is a black hole. Think about it. A black hole is the corpse of a star, something once warm and bright, now come to the end of its life cycle. But some will argue that the cycle of life does not end with death. That death is merely another path we must walk once our bodies expire and our souls ascend. In that moment, when the fuel in the star’s chemical tank hits empty and the shiny matte coat explodes into supernova, the mass left behind – the corpse – becomes a black hole. We understand that, around such a vast cadaver, dimensions work a little differently in death to the way we’re used to in life. For example, light cannot escape the pull of a black hole when it hits the point of no return. That’s where it gets its colour. Space itself is contorted by a black hole. That’s where it gets its funny shape. Even time. Time slows right down the closer you get to it. The closer you get to a black hole. The closer you get to death.
