Rage / How Life Is Meant To Be (Original)

How Life Is Meant To Be

Walking along

Keep eyes to the ground

Counting my steps

Calming me down

Always on edge

Until a safe place

No fear for myself

But those I may meet

That the rage that’s inside me

Won’t be released

Has been there as long

As I care to remember

Catch me off guard

That’s when it’s too late

Can happen so fast

Can’t always control it

You’re too quiet some say

But they don’t know

How hard it is keeping control

The comfort I feel

When I’m with my family

I think that they know

How hard some days can be

Over the years

Some days a torment

Hard work keeping calm

I really need rest

Heart pumping in chest

Watching the clock

Is it time for home yet

That’s where I feel calmest

Surrounded by family

Just sitting no worries

How life is meant to be

Life’s not all bad

Some days are a battle

Have lost a few

But most I have won

With the help from my wife

My reason to go on

Celtic Goddess Flidais

Flidais is a fascinating figure in Irish mythology, renowned for her many roles and abilities as a goddess. As a Mother Earth figure, she is associated with abundance and fertility, particularly through her strong connection to milk and milking. During the Cattle Raid of Cooley, her magical herd of cattle was able to provide milk for an entire army every seven days, a testament to her power. However, Flidais was much more than just an Earth Goddess. She was also a shape-shifter, a goddess of sexuality, and a healing goddess, making her a multifaceted and complex figure in Irish mythology. As part of the Tuatha Dé Danaan, she was believed to have originated from the pre-Christian deities of Ireland. Although the Tuatha Dé were eventually transformed into mortal queens, kings, and heroes in the medieval Ulster Cycles, Flidais remains a powerful and intriguing goddess figure, revered for her many abilities and associations. Overall, she is a testament to the richness and depth of Iri...

Ouija Board

The exact origin of the Ouija board is unknown. Objects similar to the Ouija board date as far back as 551 Bce to Ancient China where spirit boards were commonplace items used to communicate with the dead.

Talking boards also have connections to Ancient Rome where two people used the Ouija board to predict the successor to the king. They were tried for treason and eventually hung and the claimed successor was immediately executed. In February, 1891, the first advertisements started appearing in newspapers.
