  Norse Mythology: The History of...

  Much of what is known of the Norse myths comes from the 10th century onwards. Until this time and, indeed, for centuries afterwards, Norse culture (particularly that of Iceland, where the myths were eventually transcribed) was an oral culture. In fact, in all Scandinavian countries well into the 13th century laws were memorized by officials known as “Lawspeakers” who recited them at the “Thing.” The Thing was the legislative assembly in Scandinavia “held for judicial purposes.” 
  One of the most famous of these Lawspeakers was the Icelander Snorri Sturluson, a masterful writer who wrote the Prose Edda in the thirteenth century. There are other sources for the Norse myths, namely the later “Poetic Edda,” a collection of poems and prose work, and other sagas but the Snorri’s Prose Edda is the most complete work whose attribution is known to modern scholars. 
  The Prose Edda is a collection of Norse Myths split into three sections, the Gylfaginning (the Deluding of Gylfi), the Skáldskaparmál (the Language of Poetry) and the Háttatal (the Enumeration of Meters). The first has a frame story that entails a Swedish King, Gylfi, disguising himself as an old man, Gangleri, when he journeys to Asgard to meet the gods. When he arrives, he meets three men - “High One, Just-As-High, and Third” - who reveal to him stories of the world and the gods. The second section contains a warning for Christians not to believe in the Norse gods, specifically the two families, the Aesir and the Vanir, but also refutes the notion that they were demons, which was a common supposition among some Christians at the time. The Prose Edda begins in this line of thought with a euhemeristic prologue, which traces the history of the Norse Gods as human heroes of Troy, making Thor one of King Priam’s sons.

  My Fostering Experience as A...

  Fostering children is a way of providing a temporary family for children who cannot live with their own parents. Fostering can be a rewarding and challenging experience for both the foster carers and the children. There are many reasons why children may need foster care, such as abuse, neglect, family breakdown, illness, or disability.  
  Foster carers are people who have the skills, patience, and compassion to care for children who have experienced trauma and loss. They offer a safe and nurturing environment where children can heal and grow. Foster carers receive training, support, and financial assistance from the fostering agency or local authority that places the children with them.  
  They work as part of a team with social workers, therapists, teachers, and other professionals to meet the needs of the children. Foster carers can choose the type of fostering that suits them best, such as short-term, long-term, emergency, respite, or specialist fostering. They can also specify the age range and number of children they can care for.  
  Fostering is not a permanent arrangement, and the goal is usually to reunite the children with their birth families or find them an alternative permanent home. However, some foster carers may adopt the children they foster if that is in their best interest. Fostering can make a positive difference in the lives of children and foster carers alike. 
  Fostering children can have many benefits, such as making a positive difference in their lives, learning new skills and expanding your family. However, fostering children can also have many challenges, such as dealing with emotional and behavioural issues, coping with loss and attachment, and balancing your own needs and responsibilities.  
  If you are interested in fostering children, you should contact your local fostering agency or social services department to find out more about the process, the requirements and the support available.

  Simulated Lives: Are We Already Living in a Matrix? 
  Have you ever felt that reality is not quite what it seems? What if everything around you—your experiences, your beliefs, your very existence—is an intricate illusion, a sophisticated simulation crafted to keep you unaware and controlled? "Simulated Lives: Are We Already Living in a Matrix?" takes you on a deep, provocative journey into the possibility that our world is nothing more than a digital construct. This groundbreaking book is not just an exploration of the Simulation Hypothesis; it is a call to awaken from the slumber of the mind and reclaim your reality. 
  Drawing from cutting-edge scientific theories, philosophical insights, and the latest technological advancements, this book challenges the very fabric of our existence. Are we mere code in a cosmic program run by advanced civilizations, future humans, or artificial superintelligence? Are phenomena like déjà vu, the Mandela Effect, and quantum entanglement the glitches in a sophisticated digital system? Are AI, virtual reality, and augmented reality the first steps toward a deeper digital imprisonment? 
  With a compelling narrative, "Simulated Lives" leads you through the implications of living in a simulated reality, the battle for consciousness, and the ultimate revolution of awareness. This is not just a book; it is a manifesto for those who dare to question the nature of their existence, who seek to break free from the illusion, and who are ready to choose between freedom and control. 
  Are you prepared to take the red pill and see how deep the rabbit hole goes? Discover the truth and join the awakening.
