Whatever you're going through, believe me when I tell you that it is temporary. And it is proving to you how much strength you have inside of you. Don't ever give up. Stay true to yourself. Stay true to your manners and values. Kill 'em with kindness. Kill 'em with your bravery to be who you are unapologetically.

📔 The Odyssey 📔
✏️ By Homer
🎇 Denoscription: The Odyssey is one of the two major ancient Greek epic poems (the other being the Iliad), attributed to the poet Homer. The poem is commonly dated to between 800 and 600 BC.

It takes Odysseus ten years to return to his native land of Ithaca after ten years of war; during his 20-year absence, his son Telemachus and his wife Penelope must deal with a group of unruly suitors who have moved into Odysseus' home to compete for Penelope's hand in marriage, since most have assumed that Odysseus has died.

🎧 A Christmas Feast 🎧
📄 Script
This year, our family decided that the more the merrier and invited Adriano and his family to have Christmas dinner with us. We were thrilled when they accepted our invitation.
Lucy: I’m so glad you guys could all make it.
Adriano: We wouldn’t have missed it for anything. We brought a fruitcake.
Lucy: Oh, thanks. Make yourselves comfortable. Were just about to sit down to dinner.
Adriano: Wow, it looks like you’ve prepared a feast.
Lucy: Yeah, we did go a little overboard this year. We’ve got a turkey, a roast and a ham, and all the trimmings: stuffing, yams, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce. Help yourself to some eggnog.
Adriano: Thanks. Did you do all of the cooking yourself?
Lucy: I had some help and everybody brought different desserts. Save room for the pumpkin pie, the gingerbread house, and the Christmas cookies. Okay everybody, dinners ready. Adriano, would you carve the bird?
Adriano: I’d be happy to do the honors.
