I watch as you watch the waves ~

"See you soon. Take care of yourself, try not to get lost in a random crazy crowd," they said, and left me at the beach. "Don't worry, I'll make her be my generous little pet," he said to them as they kept moving towards the car. Wandering all around the area and trying to reach a pleasant spot, I just got lost in the moment. My friend, who didn’t seem to care much, told me to be careful, asked me to stay close, and just left as he noticed a bunch of people who were smoking and drinking at the campsite.  There were not many people seen around, as it was just getting dark. Also, it's a private beach. I simply bought a drink for myself and sat in a location where I felt like no-one would disturb me. I just kept staring at the beach.

I put the music on as I kept staring into the nothingness till I started to feel bored...

The Road Trip

S tanding  in the backyard, staring at the garden filled with different plants sowed by him and mesmerizing how amazing they look when the sunlight is touching the petals of those beautiful little beings, "Gardening surely is an amazing and peaceful exercise." she thinks. "Didn't I water them enough? what are you staring at?" he comes out curiously asking her while wondering what's got into her head. "Just admiring your beautiful artwork dear" she smirks at him by giving her hand to let him join her. They stay there a little while and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the morning sun, bringing different shades to the pale sky and the bright plants which are shining healthily. "This is what I dreamt of. Being happy within what I got, with the person that I love, cos that's where true happiness lies. I have no regrets in my life and I'm happy to be taken by God, right this very moment." She says with a teary eye while looking at the vi...

END OF THE GOLDEN AGE -    In the processes of creating mankind, Zeus accepted to provide almost everything but eternal fire. Prometheus, who created mankind with the clay from Eastern Africa (earth), under sun (heat), by Zeus’s saliva (water), Athena’s breathe (air) won’t be satisfied enough and feels as if something’s missing. He steals eternal fire from heaven by going against Zeus’s restrictions. There were many consequences when Zeus came to know but one is creating a woman. Till then there was only one gender preset, male kind. ( That’s why the name “man-kind” came into existence) . There’s no death. It’s called the “Golden Age”. Zeus didn’t agree to create female kind by considering his wife Hera. Later, Zeus decides to divert Prometheus’s brother, Epimetheus by creating a female and getting her to wed him. So Zeus with the help of his son Hephaestus created a female with the breathe of Aphrodite (Goddess of beauty; That is why female are considered to be beautiful an...

Epaphus usually brags about the parties he gets to attend and gods he gets to meet in heaven as he’s an Olympian. Phaeton who’s also a son of the god Apollo, gets irritated by his fellow mate Epaphus’s bragging. Even though Phaeton is the son of a god, he never got to meet his own father Apollo as he was adopted by Merops (his father- mortal) and clymene (his mother – maybe mortal).

Also, his father wants him to learn how to ride the sun’s chariot and h...
