Books, Beauty and Bliss.
Hello Sunshines!
Creating a blog has been on my to-do list for the longest time. And it is finally here!
This blog is the fruit of my passions, my interests and things that I hold dear to me.
I chose to share a piece of me on the 9th of Jan for one key reason - the number, 9.
I like to think of 3 as my lucky number and three times of my lucky number seems like quite the catch. Hence, 9.
With some research, turns out that 9 is quite the symbol in literature and mythology.
There are nine Muses in Greek mythology - Calliope (epic poetry), Clio (history), Erato (erotic poetry), Euterpe (lyric poetry), Melpomene (tragedy), Polyhymnia (song), Terpsichore (dance), Thalia (comedy), and Urania (astronomy).
In J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, there are nine rings of power given to men, and consequently, nine ringwraiths.
In George R.R Martin's, A Song of Ice and Fire, there are nine regions of Westeros (the Crownlands, the North, the Riverlands, the Westerlands, the Reach, the Stormlands, the Vale of Arryn, the Iron Islands and Dorne)
The Capsule is going to be my muse, my ring of power and my song of ice and fire.
So, cheers to sharing ideas, embracing our quirks, finding the charms in life, exploring the World, leaving a piece of us in all that we do and living a life with awe, wander and humour.
Presenting to you - the capsule.
