i forgot to throw away a drink I didn’t finish and left out yesterday, and it was sitting on my head board. I accidentally knocked it off the shelf and it landed on a book on the floor, right-side up, and none of it spilled out. I don’t know what God is on my side, but I am forever grateful.

Luckily the room was spacious, because they soon had a virtual tree of languages laid out on the floor, pile by pile of books.

No regrets, have been fortunate to have played for long time: Pujara
He hasn’t played Test cricket in the past two years, and Cheteshwar Pujara understands more than anyone else that the time is right for him to bid adieu without any regrets.
Pujara, 37, announced his retirement from competitive cricket on Sunday, having scored 7195 runs in 103 Tests with 19 centuries at a healthy average of 43 plus.

… he was made to realize that his happiness was solely a consequence of chance, and luck: for how many millions of others, less lucky than Dirk Burnaby, life had been painful, ghastly, cut off prematurely.

Fortunately the men came at a run, and were just in time, for at the stroke of noon he became so violent that it took all their strength to hold him. In about five minutes, however, he began to get more and more quiet, and finally sank into a sort of melancholy, in which state he has remained up to now.

They Live/They Die
There is a song that will never benot one of a crooning summer breezebut of smothered dreams in dirty streets—Those buried in shrouds of leavesplucked from maple trees,couched in green moss or in nice silks on soft downy beds will never know thosewho died on a freezing nighta bottle by their side or a needle in their arm.—The lucky who lived and diedtheir dreams, earned laurel crownswill never…

n case you guys missed it; On September 21, 2024 - #theserenadetour
Maxwell performed his hit song “Fortunate” and mashes Aaliyah’s “One In A Million” in it.
There are videos of this perfomance all over the intetrnet but, #ThatGrapeJuice seems to have the best quality video were you can hear Aaliyah’s OIAM beat better.
Also, in case you forgot, when Aaliyah passed away, it was Maxwell that paid Aaliyah’s unpaid funeral expenses and Blackground and Virgin Records left on the table for the families.
in 2001, Loretta Turner of Butlers Funeral Homes and Crematorium in Nassau told Time magazine that Virgin Records backed out on a verbal agreement to pay for the transport of the bodies of Aaliyah and eight others killed in the August 2001 small plane crash. Turner said she was out $68,000 and even appealed to the U.S. embassy in Nassau for help.
Thank you Maxwell for continuing to show babygirl some love over the years.
