incredible during the prosperity of the 'Golden Age',
and unbearable during the fall. Then, a new kingdom will come

across a kingdom like Egypt...that thrives, and continues to flourish.
This kingdom will become your best friend, your soulmate, and your love.

but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.

I cannot do everything; but still I can do something;
and because I cannot do everything;
I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.

Although the world is full of suffering,
it is also full of the overcoming of it.
