10 Things You Need To Do This Summer.

Summer is here! The weather is warm, the pools are open, and the days are longer. This means you can have more day light to make a ton of activities. Everyone needs a list of things to do every summer. But this summer you should really try to spice things up a little bit. So why don't you try some of these awesome things before the summer ends.

1. Unplug yourself and connect with your family and friends.

Go at least one day without technology. Trust me it is going to feel awesome.

2. Go find the nearest body of water.

Water is a source of life.

3. Go for a picnic.

It might sound old fashioned, but the contact with nature will help you connect with your inner-self. Put your favorite snacks and a good wine in a basket, go find a grassy space somewhere, sit down, and have a meal enjoying your surroundings.

4. Try something you have never tried before.

It could be eating crickets out of a candy store or simply that new gym routine.

5. Have a BBQ.

The smell of ribs just melt my mouth. It is the perfect time of the year to have a BBQ and catch up with family and friends.

6. Volunteer.

During the summer we are usually less busy. It is good to give back to society. You never know when you are changing someone else's life.

7. Have a garage sale.

It is time to clean some stuff, but what a better way than a garage sale? You could even get a little bit of money out of those books that have been stored under your bed forever.

8. Attend a bonfire.

Make some s'mores and play some acoustic guitar. It is an underrated activity, but I promise you will have fun.

9. Take a nap in a hammock.

It is not a typical place to take a nap and the swing will put you down to sleep.

10. Do a touristy thing in your city you have never done before.

Do you remember that museum you have always wanted to visit? Well this is the perfect time to do it.


Hope you at least try one of these activities!

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
