The End And The Beginning
A poem about the one true thing connecting us all.
That long walk as it chases you down
A sun-shining day turns to one so dreary
A head filled, so loud is the sound
Your inners begin to feel eerie
What words did he say
Not just words they were, as they tore through you
Like stone anvils they weigh
Leaving you not knowing what to do
They say it's all a part of a plan
But you're being robbed of your one true gem
Whether they know it, it's paid by every man
And painful it is to know you'll be paying it ahead of them
So, go on and live each day like the last
Take a moment to enjoy, smell the roses if you will
Don't fret it all went so fast
We'll all catch up and have to pay that bill
Life's a bitch
And then you die
Your spirit soars in a cinch
Into the heavens it'll fly

Merriam Webster - Word of the day: Tranche refers to a division or portion of a whole. World Contact Day is commemorated every year on March 15. It is a unique observance held globally to focus on communicating with extraterrestrial life and exploring the possibility that intelligent beings may exist beyond Earth. World Contact Day inspires people to invoke their curiosity and spend time thinking about the universe and the mysteries surrounding it. What is the “Ides of March”? According to the Roman calendar, the Ides are a monthly occurrence. In March and other months with 31 days, the Ides always falls on the 15th; it falls on the 13th in months with 30 days. The Ides traditionally marked the arrival of the new Moon and was cause for celebration. The word “Ides” is derived from Latin, meaning “to divide.” Mothering Sunday in 2026 falls on Sunday, March 15. Mothering Sunday, celebrated in the United Kingdom and Ireland, occurs on the fourth Sunday of Lent, which is exactly three weeks before Easter. Unlike the fixed-date Mother's Day in countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia, Mothering Sunday’s date changes each year according to the Christian liturgical calendar. On March 15, 2026, several notable observances and events are celebrated: Dumbstruck Day: A day to express frustration. Everything You Think is Wrong Day: A day to challenge and celebrate wrong beliefs. International Day Against Police Brutality: A day to raise awareness and advocate against police violence.
