The Aimless

Once, on long journey, I met a traveler standing at a fork in the road. He looked back and forth between the paths as if trying to make a decision.

“Where do you want to go?” I asked him, thinking that I could maybe help.
“I have no destination in mind,” he said, “and both paths look nice.  The first heads down hill and I guess leads to coast where I could walk along the beach and listen to the gulls. The other heads up into mountains, it will be more of a climb, but the views and the fresh crisp air will be worth it. ”
“Then why not just pick one of them? I asked. “It sounds like you’d enjoy both routes, but standing here means you’re not experiencing either of them.”
“Because picking one path means giving up on the dreams of the other.”
I left him standing there at fork, glad I had destination in mind

  1. Take a group of 19th century English explorers, led by "man of his times" Captain Sir John Franklin played by Ciarán Hinds. A reckless glory hound hell bent on personal prestige, who revels in the narcissistic Nationalism of Britains golden age of empire. happy death day full

    Contrast this with the raw reality of black ice, a savage landscape and something more lurking in the wintry snow swept darkness. Its coldly creepy, atmospheric stuff, with a slow menace that adds depth to what is shaping up to be another excellent series from AMC. the devil's candy release date

    Some have called The Terror survivalist horror. I'd call it "isolationist." There is no surety of survival and indeed, the overriding sense is not so much one of survival but of when and how, the key protagonists might die. In summary, a fantastic cast, wonderful visuals, great narrative and a brilliant story adapted from the novel of the same name by US author Dan Simmons watch Avengers: Infinity War free online
