Walking besides giants
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Giant, is a word commonly used to describe someone very big. Today, it is a synonym for a person who has achieved something big.
The so-called "geniuses", " truly hard workers" or simply the ones who got lucky.
Everyone has their picture of those powerful persons.
I, always imagined those rich kids who speak 4 languages, play many instruments, never had a red note, and so on.
As any other kid, I aspired to become like that, I gave my best and achieved most of those.
But when you come to a "first world country" the picture change completely.
At once, to know 4 languages, to play an instrument, to be able to swim, ride a car... are just the minimum necessary!
Yes, necessary as in obligatory.
All those kids have parents who can send them to University and support them in whatever they want.
All those kids have visited entire Europe at some point in their lives.
And they don't have an idea of how lucky they are.

Do you ever start rumbling alone about yourself?I do, a lot.It usually goes something like this:I am not special, just an average person living a life like all others, with struggles and strikes, ups and downs.That is what you tell yourself every day.Be it to push your inflate ego down or to make you feel less like a freak.We always tend to push down the "I am special feeling" because we fear retaliation from our society.It is understandable, the Special title really drew a lot of attention, especially unwanted attention.But that is what makes it a so shiny title.Everyone wants to be special.Because highly gifted, successful people, and celebrities are specials.We sometimes forget that everyone is special because everyone is unique.We also forget that people with disabilities and criminals are also special.We see only what we want and ignore the rest, so is human nature.

Um ... What should I tell you? Something interesting and with many adventures? Or a drama full of mystery? Good! I have the perfect story full of all that and more! Listen carefully.A long time ago, a story was told about two princes who knew nothing about their origins. That is why they had no real names. One had orange eyes like the sunset and yellow hair like the rays of the sun. The other prince was completely white, only his pupils were red.The two princes traveled together through the fields, looking for someone who had all the answers. What they were looking for was the most famous prophet of the Seven Kingdoms, who worked for most kings, but never made a prophecy with 100 percent certainty and, when asked why, replied that if he did, it would turn to dust.It was rumored that the Prophet loved to walk in the fields of cities going to war in search of someone who needed prophecy. That was the princes' last hope. One day, when crossing the border of the

Last Updated : 2024-10-29Strange short stories She
"And this time? Are you going to try to stop me?" Her voice was too calm for someone to belong to someone on the edge of a cliff. My voice does not come out. Or rather, I have no idea what to answer. My head seems to have stopped in the afternoon that I suggested us to travel here.If you ask me who is she, I would say she has always been my conscience voice.For someone brought up by extremely strict parents like her, the very thought of running away from home was blasphemy, a stupid idea. Clearly one of my ideas. That day She gave me that typical look of disbelief that we both knew was useless. She should have worked harder to stop me.I left at 3:15, everyone was all asleep. Or, so I thought until I found my father drunk on the couch watching TV. The sound was at a minimum, and he noticed me before I noticed him. He asked where I was going. I replied that she had had nightmares, and I was going to sleep at her room. He believed it, or at least I think that wa
