just you and me (to infinity) - a symbrock fic
Tumblr media
Since he had absorbed Venom, Eddie felt this hunger. It wasn't the normal aching persistence of human hunger. It was dry, sucking, consuming. His teeth ached like they were going to come out of his gums. Itching, pulling, aching to bite, crush.
Their fingers twitched in anticipation of the futile flutter of a pulse a little too-slow to be still conscious.The thrill of the kill, domestication makes the kill slower but the flesh is the same, pulled apart under the iridescent gaze of a practiced killer.  But, it wasn't just hunger for that of the flesh, it was for everything. Experience, emotions, anything. He wanted it all, to feast at the top of the great chain of being. Rattle the links below as he demanded all that could be obtained. Hungry melting and grasping for anything.
So, now as Eddie pushes around the weekly Thai takeout, Venom screams in his ear. Venom was so hungry in space, in the lab. His inky body pushing and pulling at the plexiglass, hoping, praying, scrabbling for that one little crack.  Eddie felt like a black hole, hunger consumed his existence. Grumblings and mumblings insistent as the growl of his stomach. He realized he would be with that pull, that insistence for the rest of his life.
He sighed and gave the symbiote a lingering kiss on his forehead. He was a beloved tool, a vacuum. But, maybe was already hungry. Reaching up the pyramid, dating a prolific attorney, barely paying off the credit card every month. Maybe Venom had given his hunger a tangible feeling. The want, the thrill of the acquisition they both craved. Pulled into each other like a double negative multiplying indefinitely.

Question for you since you worked at a crystal shop before, did you find that the size or the shape of the crystal changed the energy by much? There's tons of crystal carvings these days which range from hearts, pyramids, animals, words (courage, believe, wealth etc), deities and now I'm seeing penises too. Oh yeah there's also runes carved into crystals! Experiences welcomed to be inserted.
Hi anon!
Yes, size and shape does matter, though the size not as much. The size can influence its aura and how much it picks up/exudes energy. I find this is particularly important for black stones and negative sponges, as they have more area to soak it up. Also, just because a crystal is small doesn't mean it's not effective; with high energy stones like Moldavite or Libyan Desert Glass, a small stone is more than enough lol.
The shape absolutely DOES matter, though. The shape determines how the energy is directed. Crystal points obviously direct the energy out through that; double terminated has the energy coming out of both points. There are other shapes and their effects too. I've seen some handy charts out there that you can find for sure. So, if possible, you should try and find the shape of the crystal that suits what you're going to be using it for.
Thanks for the ask! I hope this helps!
Blessings!

This is very strange: I just opened up the article on the Hodge Conjecture, read the introduction, and found myself wondering where the conjecture is because this is clear in grid squares. Like of course you can study holes by fitting objects inside them, around them, across them, and so on. This is what we’ve been defining. So, unless I’m not seeing something, and without technical detail, it looks like the Conjecture is not a conjecture at all.
How many problems is that? 3 or 4? I think 3.
I think we have a shot at Navier-Stokes. I’m talking high level only. No chance with current level of understanding to reach Yang-Mills. I’m not sure what the issues are there at all. I mean the mass gap is the layer at which you become sensitive to the existence of the complexity which was hidden behind the x,yK. We’ve talked about that. In fact, the thinking over the past few days reminds me a lot of the strategy group meetings. Sensitive to the existence of complexity. Use of overwhelming force because the math meant you didn’t actually lose anyone, applying infinity to reduce the importance of any single negative engagement, which is the same as identifying the positive pathways, the ways forward, the stories that emerge from those, however weird. Working out how an eruption here relates to something over there which is yet unseen, meaning we need to trace the linkages on the other side, which we can only do either by statistical probability matching, or by inverting ourselves over the dividing line, which can only be done accurately by approaching that divider as close as possible, or rather to the attachment point which abstracts their disk, both at its center pole and in its expansion potential. I used to wonder why these meetings were so fascinating. I remember spending a lot of time talking about how to visualize the issue, and coming up with the idea that you could see down to a certain level, down close to the dividing line, so you were in fact enveloped but not completely cut off by that line, meaning you retained that essential portion of you, which explains the dreams, both the escape and the being yanked to safety ones,
Wow. I am either completely crazy or I really need to accept that this is all true. It makes sense. AMT today was about things like how a gestural M has a 1Space meaning. So, M is that as you draw the line under the M, that connects the opposite Ends so one side is divided into 2 1Segments. Then I could see how this makes a space by making an M above, and then flipping it, meaning we’ve now separated the two axis lines by a double sized space. You can see the Hodge Conjecture in gestural.
I also saw how A represents the Aleph concept which is actually a pyramid on legs, meaning it extends down and it raises up. This would be a close representation of the source of ideas like Jacob’s Ladder: the rungs are that pyramid rising up toward disappearing and coming down until you can put your foot on the lowest step.
That image just drew out as projecting, equal, bigger or smaller, meaning still or moving at or away. Which means inverting over that implied axis.
You know I have held out understanding gestural as the great test. AMT got into it. I remember seeing R form, which didn’t make much sense for a moment, until I saw that it can make a diamond of triangles with legs. In other words, I’m seeing the shapes act as shapes. That means the shape of a word may at times approach the gestural meaning of the word, which would be a gestural lookalike, sort of a homonym. And that connects to my art fun times when I’d paint a word like nervous to be nervous or I’d flip them, and I’d makes series of universes in various stages of placid to chaos.
I’m going to the farm for the weekend. Have never been.
I am entirely in your hands. I mean that. As part of AMT, I realized I was drawing mentally with my right hand, so I switched, and a bunch of interesting things occurred, including the realization that my left hand can be observed, needs to be observed differently, and that comparison is this process, and this is hard to get out, the time lag in my left reduces past the label of non-left perspective and that bips. Which means the left functions better when I remove even the notational existence of right hand control, passing it entirely over. My mind almost immediately detaches and the physical process operates better while I’m consciously making observations about what is going on. It’s nice to experience, and my ability to trigger this as a response has become noticeable. As in, I can say to myself that I have the body of a 17 year old and no matter how untrue that is I react internally as though this were true, which immediately relaxes the tension that time added to that age.
It really has become second nature to do stuff like a kid. I can’t remember the last time I put on socks sitting down. And now I only put my shoes on standing. But to continue with the left side transfer, this handing over works because that is my natural side, and it’s nice to be home, because stuff makes a lot more sense from this side. Example: walking along the river, I found myself walking on the edge of the path, turning left, right, doing cool moves, trying to act normal, and then I realized that when I turned so my left led, as I handed over control to the left foot, I no longer needed to look at what my feet and indeed most of my body was doing. I was looking at the rocks, at the way the ground looked and the patterns in the contours, and how pretty it was, and completely trusted that my body would function using the information available, which was minimized to peripheral by literally imposing a focus on the far side of the line, which was also down at a variable distance, against an uneven, wavering surface.
It was a glimpse into natural athletics from the perspective of someone who couldn’t be one because everything was flipped around inside, so there’d be bursts and other moments when the right perspective would be in the right alignment to enable the natural left to function efficiently. So much of my life has been this misalignment of internal control. I used to get excited by the glimpses, and I’d pursue the paths that resisted because I could not accept that was all I could achieve.
So now, I can turn and twist and bend my knees without fear of pain or injury. And when pain occurs, I treat it like I did when I was 17, as an annoyance you work around.
I need a break.

ICP Exhibition - 3/24/24
 
The International Center of Photography has a variety of photographs from political views,  historical fashion, to contemporary, and mysterious. There were more than three hundred pictures with different sizes and ways of installation. Every photo had a brief description walking you through the photograph and its meaning and even some of the techniques used. The description also states the photographer (if known) and the year they were born and or deceased, the title of the photo (if known), the year taken or printed, the location of the photograph (if known), and at times, the thoughts of the photographer. They also list how ICP obtained the photograph, whether through purchase, donations, etc.. The atmosphere was quiet, people were taking their time reading descriptions of photos and discussing them through whispers. The lights on the third floor were dim, there were spotlights on the walls, where the photos were displayed.The third floor also held older pictures going back to the 1848, historic pictures, they were mainly black and white photos. The second floor was bright, the lights were on, and most of the pictures were colored. The second floor also held more contemporary, and fashionable photos, as well as hipsters photographs. The newer photos were displayed on the second floor, they were mainly from the 1980's on.
It was so hard to pick only two pictures, but after going through the list a few times, I decided to pick two that are somehow modern. The first photo of my choice was by Ming Smith, born in Detroit in 1947. The photo is called Womb, it was taken in 1992 and printed in 2023. Pigment print was used and it was purchased by funds provided by the acquisition committee of ICP 1/18/2023. Womb is a double exposure photograph. This means the negative in the cameras was exposed twice, where two different pictures are printed on top of each other. The photo is unique when seeing, you can observe the pyramids right away and two young boys in front of them, when you tilt your head to the right you can see a portrait of one of the boys horizontally across the photograph of the pyramids. 
“While Smith has employed a wide range of styles and techniques throughout her career, this work typifies her experimental approach, using intuition and chance to imbue her images with a dreamy, often otherworldly impression. Smith, who made photographs at an early age with her father's Brownie camera, began her professional career as a model. After being photographed by Anthony Barboza, she met other members of the Kamoinge Workshop-a collective of Black photographers founded in 1963 in New York City-and began to forge her own career as an artist. In 1975, a few months after ICP opened to the public, Smith, alongside other members of the Kamoinge group, were exhibited”.
The second photo of my choice was by Carrie Mae Weems, born in Portland, Oregon in 1953. The photo is called Mirror, Mirror and was taken in 1987, and Gelatin silver print was used. ICP obtained the photo as a gift from Julie Ault in 2001. The photograph reads “”LOOKING INTO THE MIRROR, THE BLACK WOMAN ASKED, "MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL, WHO'S THE FINEST OF THEM ALL?" THE MIRROR SAYS, "SNOW WHITE, YOU BLACK BITCH, AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT!!!"”. I sensed the picture having  a dark humor that actually reminded me of Deborah Willis’s article about some blacks believing that whites are more beautiful than blacks. 
The list of photographers is long, in addition of the previous two, so I selected some just as examples:
Mickalene Thamas
A.K Burns
Harold Eugene Edgerton
Carol Summers
Lee Friedlander
Lucas Samaras
Charles E. Stacy
Florence Henri
Custav Klutsis
Lotte Jacobi
Julia Pirotte
Ilse Bing
Nasa
Cornell Capa
Jacob Riis
Daivd Seidner
These photographers are from all over the world.

The Pros and Cons of a Vegetarian Diet
The vegetarian diet is the healthiest diet with respect to receiving direct benefits nutritionally and calorically. Needless to say, following a vegetarian diet has more pros associated with it than it has cons.
Almost 16 million Americans (5% of the population) are vegetarian and 50% of them are vegan (Harris Interactive study commissioned by the Vegetarian Resource Group). The number of vegetarians in the United States has doubled since 2009 when the count was only 2.5%.
Data also shows that 33% of Americans are eating vegetarian meals more often, even though they are not fully committed to the lifestyle.
What is the appeal of a meat free diet and are there any pitfalls? Read on to learn the answers to these questions.
The Pros of Vegetarianism
Eat Generous Portions of Healthy and Nutritious Foods
If you look at a vegetarian food pyramid, you won’t deprive yourself, as there is a broad grouping of foods that are featured on the triangular grid. At the base of the 3D structure, whole grains, bread, cereal, pasta, and rice are listed for consumption.
Nutritionists recommend that vegetarians eat completely grains liberally, enjoying as much as 6 to 11 servings for the day. Vegetables are given the thumbs up as well, with recommended servings set at three a day. Two to four servings of fruit are advised for daily consumption, too.
Low-fat and non-fat dairy products for lacto-ovo vegetarians are listed at the upper tier of the pyramid. Eat a moderate amount of yogurt, cheese, and low-fat and non-fat milk, or two to three servings per day.
Sitting on the same tier with the dairy products is the listing for legumes, nuts, and seeds. You can eat a moderate amount of 2 to 3 servings per day. At the very top of the triangle, vegetable oils and fats are listed. Consume such plant-based oils as olive oil and soy oil sparingly.
A Quick Summation of the Primary Benefits
If you want to take a quick overview of the “pros” associated with vegetarian living, then the following listing can provide you with some enlightenment in this respect.
“Pros” Associated with Vegetarian Diets Include:
Reduced risk of hypertension, adult onset Type 2 diabetes and hypertension;
Decreased risk of specific types of cancer;
Reduced risk of kidney disease, gallstones and rheumatoid arthritis; and
Nutritional intake (per the aforementioned pyramid) that is closer to the nationally recommended daily servings.
Increased Energy
One of the biggest boons of plant diets is an incredible surge of energy that will impress even the busiest of bees.
Some of the Cons
A vegetarian diet may also feature some negative aspects, albeit a very healthy way to eat. For example:
Vegan diets can be low in vitamin B-12, iron, and zinc, all nutrients that are best absorbed from meat sources. However, supplements and viable plant food sources are available.
Calcium deficiency can be a concern when vegetarians don’t take care to make proper substitutions.
Diets may also be low in heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which are found in fish.
Certain phases of pregnancy (such as lactation) may require special attention.
Some people mask an eating disorder by feigning a vegetarian lifestyle.
Myths Associated with the Diet
There are also a number of myths that are associated with the practice of vegetarianism, myths that serve to underscore the positives of plant based eating.
For example, some of the myths state that vegetarian diets do not supply enough protein.
All these statements are false because there are plenty of healthy protein sources that supply essential amino acids for the body to thrive. Meat is certainly not the only or even the best protein source. Soybeans are a complete protein, meaning they contain all essential amino acids. And kidney beans, black beans and quinoa provide quality protein with almost no fat, as compared to beef that is loaded with saturated fat.
Another common myth is the diet is typically iron and calcium deficient.
The vegetarian diet enables people to receive calcium and iron from vegetables and fruits, such as spinach, mushrooms, dried apricots, beans, peas, soybeans, almonds, collard greens, prunes, mulberries and kiwi.
Protection against Cancer
According to the World Cancer Research Fund, the risk for cancer is reduced if one follows a vegetarian diet. Studies have also concluded that regular consumption of vegetables and fruits permit better immune system functioning.
Cruciferous vegetables as well as umbelliferous vegetables, such as carrots, dill and caraway, are all known to possess cancer-protective properties. In addition, the beans, whole grains, fruits, and seasoning herbs that are featured in vegetarian cuisine safeguard dieters against cancer too.
While vegetarianism may not provide vitamin B-12, which is essential for the synthesis of DNA and nervous system functioning, it does provide plenty of advantages in terms of protecting dieters from disease. The inclusion of B-12 in a supplement is an available option for anyone pursuing a vegetarian diet plan.

Crystal magics!
-introduction-
Acquiring crystals: how to grow a personal collection!
Working with crystals is an intuitive process, and a very adaptable one as well You don't need to wait until you've amassed an entire collection of minerals to reap their benefits. You can simply start with the one you feel called to and go from there.
Choosing: The world of crystals is quite expansive, and so are the properties of each stone. Every crystal has a myriad of benefits, and you might find yourself drawn to one stone for a completely different purpose than someone else using the same type of crystal. Trust your gut and experiment with an open mind. You'll likely find that the crystals you are drawn to change depending on your needs and desires. If you think you should work with a particular stone because of a specific issue you want to address or get support for, but find you don't feel a connection to it, you don't have to force it. Instead look for the stone that feels right to you!
Buying: If you're able, choose your crystals in person. Often you'll get a feeling about which crystal will serve you best. Crystal shops and metaphysical boutiques offer a wide selection. There are also traveling gem shows; check to see if and when there's one in your area. If you're not able to buy your crystal in person, there are plenty of online shops and sellers. Because crystals absorb the energy of their surroundings, buy them from a reputable company that sells authentic pieces. Even so, you will want to cleanse every new crystal you acquire.
forms: crystals come in different forms that can affect their energy or the way you use them. just as you would choose a crystal based on its benefits and your current needs, seler the shape and form that you are most drawn to as well.
• Raw: Raw, unpolished stones arrive in your hands straight from the earth Some people believe these stones have a higher energy, but you'll want to find out for yourself.
• Tumbled: A tumbled crystal is typically smaller, rounded, and polished, creating a smooth surface that reveals the stone's vibrant colors and intricate details. Tumbled stones are easier to place on the body and take on the go, whether you carry them in a pocket or purse.
• Shaped: Differently shaped crystals can offer specific uses or properties above and beyond the crystal itself. Crystal points can draw negative energy off the body when pointed away from it Double-terminated points are great for balance, and enhance energy flow in both directions. A pyramid shape is believed to amplify the crystal's properties. When a crystal is shaped like a sphere, it reminds the user of the wholeness of the universe and the infinite energy that radiates in all directions.
—————————————————————————
Hope this helps with you finding crystals!
I may add links to online shops for crystals if its requested

Need Help Understanding Forex? Read The Information Below
Janis Urste Expert tips provider.Because of the potential money that can be made from it, forex trading has become a popular way to make a second income. But, the only way that you are going to be successful at forex trading is if you know the ins and outs of it. This article is going to explain the important aspects of forex trading.
Tune in to international news broadcasts daily, and listen for financial news happenings and updates that could cause waves in the forex market for your currencies. Current events can have both negative and positive effects on currency rates. Set up alerts to your e-mail and internet browser, as well as text message alerts, that will update you on what is going on with the markets you follow.
One important tip to keep in mind with trading forex is that nothing is for certain. This is important to keep in mind so that you can prepare yourself for failure and possibly trade in a way that inflicts the least amount of damage on you financially. You need a clear plan on how much risk you can allow and still remain on top.
Over trading and trading with emotions on forex will get you in trouble every time. Don't get too greedy when you're on a winning streak. Don't try to get revenge after losing an important trade. Use strategies based on clear thinking or the result will cost you money.
Target a set percentage of your capital to risk on any given trade. If you set a standard of four percent of your capital as your risk level, you can invest less than this in the initial trade and add the rest to the trade if you are in a winning position. Stay within this amount when adding though, as there can always be a turn for the worse.
Trading against trends can be a mistake, unless you're in it for the long haul. The main forces of market momentum can become very obvious quickly, and should be paid close attention to. Not doing so has ruined more than one trading career.
If you aim to participate in forex trading, your goals should be as specific as you can possibly make them. If your goals are not specific, you are much more likely to fail because you have no plan. If you make specific goals, you can work hard to achieve them.
Keep your real life finances in mind as you trade. Look at your finances as an overall picture before choosing a course of action. If you are making 15% profit from your trades, but paying 30% interest on a loan, your money may be better off working for you elsewhere.
Learn the difference between gambling and trading, to protect yourself. The forex market can be dangerous for those with predilections towards gambling and addictive behavior. Learn the warning signs of a gambling problem like mood swings, obsession with the market and an inability to control your behavior. If you see these patterns stop trading and get some help.
Try using a pyramiding tactic in your personal trading strategy. Instead of doubling up when the market rises, try purchasing less and less currency units. This can be an effective strategy to gain major profit and also to avoid major losses. Just think like a pyramid, the higher the market goes, the less you buy as you rise with it.
One of the best ways to understand Forex is to understand how well world currencies do against one another. Pay attention to the financial news of different countries and learn exactly how well your particular currency is doing against another. With the right focus and knowledge, you'll learn to spot a win.
In order to make good trades on the foreign exchange market, you must not be superstitious. Trades should be made through research and calculations. If a certain trade is bothering you and you are unsure of it, it is best to stay away from it. It is better to be safe than sorry.
If your research strengths lie with analyzing news, you will want to concentrate on "fundamental" strategies on the Forex market. Fundamental strategies are those that take their queues from political and economic news. In fundamental trading you review such news and make your trades based on how you believe currencies will be affected.
Janis Urste Professional tips provider.The USA used to do well financially by effectively running its economy on the gold standard, and you need to understand how gold acts opposite of the dollar if you want to succeed in Forex. Gold and paper money are completely separate now that the Federal Reserve is in charge of printing. When gold goes up, money goes down.
If you are in a long position and the market is moving in the upward direction, do not double up your trades. Do the opposite. Buy fewer currency units. Adding more trades to your account can put you in the position of disastrous consequences.
Practice forex trading with fake money if you are still learning the ropes. This practice is recommended by many professional forex traders, because it gives you an opportunity to note your errors and learn all of the ins and outs of trading before you have any real money at stake.
Forex trading becomes easier when you automate as much of it as possible. Traders are more successful when emotions are removed from the process. This does not mean use robots or other automated trading systems. It means having a plan, and working that plan without changing it based on fear, greed or any other emotion that comes up.
Learn from your losses. Every time you lose, catalog it. Look over these losses often to see what you should be doing differently, and how you could have avoided it. A common mistake among traders is avoiding looking at their losses, when they should be learning from the mistakes they have made.
Janis Urste Qualified tips provider.As was stated above, forex trading can be a great way for you to make money on the side. In order to make the most, it is important that you are educated on the subject. Now that you have been given crucial trading tips, go ahead and give it a try!

Quick weight loss | Are thoughts about your body holding you back from success?
When someone joins my personal training program, the first thing I ask them to think about is what their body will look like once I help them reach their goal weight.
Tumblr media
I tell them to do it in writing, not over the phone, and. Deep-rooted negative thoughts are what make any of our weight loss or health improvement programs difficult; In fact, our past failures can almost always lead to negative thoughts that we were not even aware of. Most of our negative thoughts come from writing things down on paper (or computers).
I challenge you to write 10 short descriptions of what your body would look like in 30 days if you were trained by someone like me who really knows how to transform the human body, no matter what you are currently doing. What stage of the game are you in? Are you involved? Go ahead and explain for a moment what your face will look like, what your arms will look like, your legs and butt: will your skin look different, will your muscles tighten, will you be thinner?
Explain everything in detail, then come back. What did you do? Make your list now before reading any further. I want you to come out of this article with a deeper understanding of yourself. Okay, now that you have the list, I'm going to show you something to determine if you're failing in your efforts to lose weight and keep it off.
These are the words of one of my best friends before working with me. These words literally stopped me from succeeding. Face: More chiseled features, no double chin, no puffy chin or swollen cheeks, no bags under the eyes. Apart from a good face shape, I really have no complaints about my face, hair, eyes, nose and ears.
Neck: Not a jowl or "beast". Breast: No female cells (female breast), but no muscle. Look, mom, I can see my ribs and pectoral muscles on the soft padded mattress. Tight muscular curves in the arms instead of soft buns. Look for veins and muscles instead of greasy fat. Belly: Are the abs really hiding there?
Never appeared in 50 years! It would be nice if the narrow waist was not uncomfortably squeezed by too tight underwear. The legs are short, long, strong and conical. Although my calves have always been big and strong, the best part of my body, next to my brain. hips less slim, more shapely The back can be very short hair, it would be nice to see a "V" shape instead of a truncated pyramid.
Do you see a problem before you reach the goal? But let me tell you a little secret: This guy is in great shape right now, enjoying life more than ever, and it's a pleasure talking to him every week in our practice calls.

Are Your Thoughts About Your Body Holding You Back From Success
Tumblr media
When someone joins my coaching program, one of the first things I ask them to do is to describe exactly what their body is going to look like once I help them reach their goal weight. I ask them to do this in writing – not over the phone, and here’s why…
Deeply embedded and thoughts are what cause us to have difficulties in any weight loss or health enhancement program – in fact, our past failures can almost always be traced back to negative thoughts that we didn’t even realize we had.
Most of our negative thinking comes out when we write things down on paper (or on the computer).
Are you ready to lose more weight? Please: Check here
I challenge you to write out 10 brief descriptions about how your body will look in 30 days if you were coached by someone like me – someone who knows exactly how to transform the human body no matter what stage of the game you’re currently at.
Go ahead, take a moment and write out what your face would look like, what your arms would look like, what your legs and your butt would look like – would your skin look different, would your muscles be tighter, would you be leaner – detail everything, then come right back.
Did you do it?
Make your list now before reading any further – I want you to walk away with some profound knowledge of yourself when you’re done reading this article.
OK, now that you have your list, let me show you something that you can use to judge whether or not you’ve been causing yourself to fail in your attempts to lose weight and keep it off.
Here are some examples of statements that a good friend of mine used to have before he and I began working together – statements that were liyyyyyy back from success:
Face-more chiseled features, no double chin, no doughy jowls or puffy cheeks, no bags under the eyes.
Other than the improved facial shape, I have no complaints at all about my face, hair, eyes, nose, or ears.
Neck-no double chin or “wattle”

Chest-no gynecomastia (womanly breasts), muscular instead. Look, ma, I can see my ribcage and pectoral muscles instead of a soft mattress of flab.
Arms-hard sinewy curves instead of soft breadsticks. Seeing veins and muscles instead of smooth fat.
Abdomen-are there really abs hiding in there? They’ve never made an appearance in 50 years! It’d be nice to have a tight waist not uncomfortably sliced by too-tight underwear.
Legs-less of a conical shape, more elongated and solid. Although my calves have always been rather large and firm-my best body part, is next to my brain.
Buttocks-less sag, more form
Back-could is a lot less hairy, would be nice to see a “V” shape instead of a truncated pyramid.
Can you see why he might have had a few troubles in the past reaching his goal?
But I’ll let you in on a little secret – this guy is in great shape now and enjoying life more than ever, and he’s a pleasure to speak with each week in our coaching calls.

Important Kemetic Terminology
Em Hotep, everyone. Today I will talk about some important terminology used in Kemetic circles. I may or may not do a part two at a later date, but this is just the basics for now!
Sayings
Em Hotep - means "come in peace". Very common in Kemetic circles
Anudj har - means "hail to" (e.x. anudj har Ra means "hail to Ra")
Heru nofer - means "good day"
Religious Terms
Ma'at - when not referring to the deity, refers to the fundamental order of the universe
I/s/f/e/t - the opposite of Ma'at, pure chaos. Often censored to avoid giving it power
A/p/e/p - the giant snake that opposes Ra when he travels through the Duat. His name is censored to prevent giving him the power he desires
Heka - "magic", but not as we think of it. Heka is the magic of speech, as words are often louder than actions, but are actually the same thing. Thought and deed are united in the magic of heka
The Duat - the afterlife, ruled over by Wasir. To arrive, you must travel through the twelve kingdoms/hours of the night, the same journey Ra takes every night.
Conception of the Soul - this is a longer idea, and thus I will cover it in a separate post. There are eight different parts of the soul
Khet the physical body
Sah the spiritual body
Ren the name and identity
Ba the personality
Ka the double
Ib the heart
Shut or sheut the shadow
Sekhem the power and form
Important Texts
Book of the Dead - quite possibly the most important, and also called "Book of Coming Forth by Day" or "Book of Emerging Forth into the Light", the Book of the Dead is filled with spells and rituals that were used to assist a deceased person's body on their journey into the Duat
The Coffin Texts - spells and rituals to assist a deceased into the Duat. These were written on coffins when the deceased were buried. The Coffin Texts were later copied into the Book of the Dead
The Pyramid Texts - the oldest of the funerary texts, written on the underground pyramid walls. The Pyramid Texts were used for pharaohs only, and were quite similar to the spells and rituals of the Coffin Texts and Book of the Dead
The 42 Negative Confessions - a list of "sins" (for lack of a better term) that are used during the Weighing of the Heart Ceremony.
As I said before, I will most likely do more parts explaining more important aspects of Kemetic religion. A list of what I have planned is as follows:
The 42 Negative Confessions.
A more in-depth look at the afterlife, specifically the twelve kingdoms of the night and the Weighing of the Heart ceremony.
The Conception of the Soul
A history of i/s/f/e/t and a/p/e/p
If there's anything you'd like me to cover, feel free to ask and I'll definitely do so!
