Yes, her name is Nguyen Nguyen. My grade 6 classmate that sat in front of me. She never spoke to anyone. Not even the teacher. I mean, EVER. But she was brilliant & never needed help with anything. We would walk to school together, & even then—not a single word. Then one day…

Do you ever randomly think about someone from your past and think, “I hope you’re well, wherever you are”?

The Romans created tombs for their dogs and gave them epitaphs to remember them by. One such inscription read: "I am in tears, while carrying you to your last resting place as much as I rejoiced when bringing you home with my own hands 15 years ago."
The Ancient Greeks and Romans believed that it was essential to have a good dog. They pop up everywhere in Ancient Roman and Greek literature, art, and mythology. The gates to the underworld were guarded by a three-headed dog, Zeus himself was guarded as an infant by a faithful golden dog named Laelaps, and Homer's hero, Odysseus, wept tears of joy when his old dog, Argus, recognized him after many years away. Dogs were used as guards, hunting companions, and even in battle, but they were also part of the family.
The epitaph on one dog grave that was discovered reads: "To Helena, foster child, soul without comparison and deserving of praise."
It's human nature to imagine our dogs have a voice, and the owner of one Ancient Roman dog took this tendency literally to the grave: "Thou who passest on this path, If haply thou dost mark this monument, Laugh not, I pray thee, though it is a dog's grave. Tears fell for me, and the dust was heaped above me By a master's hand," their dog's grave reads. Another's tells the visitor how much his owner loved him in his "own" words: "This is the tomb of the dog, Stephanos, who perished, Whom Rhodope shed tears for and buried like a human. I am the dog Stephanos, and Rhodope set up a tomb for me.
Not every ancient dog tomb is so fanciful. A simple yet heartfelt epitaph reads: "Myia never barked without reason, but now he is silent."

S2 of #WheelOfTime has easily proven it's the best fantasy series since 'Game of Thrones'. Not even a close competition (sorry 'House of The Dragon'). Amazon threw all that money at 'Lord of The Rings' when in actual fact, it should've just invested in this adaptation instead.
