"Trust Nobody" - Tupac Shakur
šø: Beside Tupac is Ayanna Jackson, the woman who accused him of something that devastated his life. On Ayanna's left side is Haitian Jack the person responsible for one of the most challenging moments of Tupac life, the incident and event at Quad studio. Behind him, someone who should have protected him but betrayed him mercilessly, leading him down a difficult path that eventually changed everything. A story filled with disappointment, deep betrayals, and the heavy weight of shattered loyalties.

Drink water where your horse drinks, a horse will never drink bad water. š§Make your bed where the cat sleeps peacefully. Eat fruit touched by a worm. It fearlessly collects mushrooms on which insects perch. Plant a tree dug by the mole. Dig a hole where the birds hide from the heat. Sleep and wake up at the same time as the birds, you will reap the golden grains of life. Eat more greens, you will have stronger legs and a resilient heart like the spirit of the forests. Look at the sky more often and talk less so that silence can enter your heart. and your soul is calm and your life is peaceful.

This is a strangler fig tree, Inside this tree is a hollow space where a different tree stood
The strangler fig's seeds have made their way into the canopy of a host tree and germinated. As the fig's roots grow, they cascade down the trunk,
Once they are in the ground it competes for nutrients and water with the host. Then It gradually tightens its grip around the host tree
This process hinders the flow of water and nutrients, causing the host tree to weaken and eventually die. Over time, the strangler fig takes over completely, once the process is complete, the original tree decomposes, a hollow centre is all that remains to mark its existenceš

What makes you think human beings are sentient and aware? There's no evidence for it. Human beings never think for themselves, they find it too uncomfortable. For the most part, members of our species simply repeat what they are told-and become upset if they are exposed to any different view. The characteristic human trait is not awareness but conformity, and the characteristic result is religious warfare. Other animals fight for territory or food; but, uniquely in the animal kingdom, human beings fight for their 'beliefs.' The reason is that beliefs guide behavior which has evolutionary importance among human beings. But at a time when our behavior may well lead us to extinction, I see no reason to assume we have any awareness at all. We are stubborn, self-destructive conformists. Any other view of our species is just a self-congratulatory delusion. Next question. ~Michael Crichton

āIf I were in your shoes,ā you say
āI wouldnāt feel a thing
Because those shoes look comfortable
And easy to walk inā
āIf I were in your shoes,ā you say
āI wouldnāt walk as far
Iād work smarter not harder
And Iād still be where you areā
āIf I were in your shoes,ā you say
āThen I would not complain
We donāt get anywhere in life
Without a little painā
But youāre not in my shoes
āCause if you were youād realise
Itās not about the shoes as much
As how they feel inside
You see, for years I did not have
Such easy, comfy shoes
And working hard to just get by
Was all that I could do
So go ahead, climb mountains
With nothing on your feet
Run along through mud
Without a thing to keep you clean
Wade across the river
With no boots to keep you dry
Bare your soles and let them burn
As you run through the fire
And when your toes are bleeding,
When your heels are black and blue
When your soles are weary,
Red and raw and swollen too
Yes, when your feet are blistered
And theyāre caked in blood and dirt
Then walk a mile in my shoes
And tell me they donāt hurt

"The loneliest moment in someoneās life is when they are watching their whole world fall apart, and all they can do is stare blankly. It's not the shattering itself that breaks youāitās the silence that follows, the quiet space where you realize thereās nothing left to salvage. And in that moment, you know that youāll never be the same again. Youāll build something new, perhaps, but it will never be what you lost."
ā F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby 
When a nice guy loses his patience, the devil shivers 
"Many of us spend our whole
Lives running from feelings with
The mistaken belief that you cannot
Bear the pain. But you have already
Born the pain. What you have not done
Is feel all you are, beyond that pain."
š Kahlil Gibranš„ 
āI gave up trying to make sense of it all. How could I? Thereās no logic to heartbreak, no reason to loneliness. It just is. It hangs over you like a shadow, follows you everywhere you go, sits on your chest as you try to sleep, whispers in your ear when you try to smile. Itās the kind of pain that no one else sees, the kind that gnaws at you until thereās nothing left but an empty shell of the person you used to be.ā

In his 1976 book The Twelfth Planet, Russian-American author Zecharia Sitchin claimed that the Anunnaki were actually a race of extraterrestrial beings from the undiscovered planet Nibiru, who came to Earth around 500,000 years ago in order to mine gold.
According to Sitchin, the Anunnaki genetically engineered homo erectus to create modern humans to work as their slaves. Sitchin claimed that the Anunnaki were forced to leave Earth when Antarctic glaciers melted, causing the Flood of Noah, which also destroyed the Anunnakiās bases on Earth. These had to be rebuilt and the Nephilim, needing more humans to help in this massive effort, taught them agriculture.
Ronald H. Fritze writes that, according to Sitchin, āthe Annunaki built the pyramids and all the other monumental structures from around the world that ancient astronaut theorists consider so impossible to build without highly advanced technologies.āSitchin also claimed that the Anunnaki had left behind human-alien hybrids, some of whom may still be alive today, unaware of their alien ancestry. Sitchin expanded on this mythology in later works, including The Stairway to Heaven (1980) and The Wars of Gods and Men (1985). In The End of Days: Armageddon and the Prophecy of the Return (2007), Sitchin predicted that the Anunnaki would return to earth, possibly as soon as 2012, corresponding to the end of the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar.
