My time on the train is spent thinking or reading. Sometimes being in a car with 100 strangers is the quietest, lonliest place to be. Which is why it's also the best for reflecting on the past, your day and the future.

today has been a heart-attack of nostalgia. i am remembering times i thought i had forgotten, times i thought had been blocked out by more traumatic experiences. i am missing innocence and first love and childhood and i am not ready to grow up.

Hi guys, this is my new creation that i made to honour one of the greatest Greeks of all time,
The Great Alexander!!
I created a representation of the famous Macedonian phalanx, which was also the main pillar of Alexander's army!
The Macedonian Phalanx was an infantry formation developed by Philip II and used by Alexander to conquer the Achaemenid Empire and other armies. Phalanxes remained dominant on battlefields throughout the Hellenistic period,
first of all the Macedonians, and then of all the States of the Successors and Epigones, for two centuries (mid-4nd to 2nd century BC)
Here you can see a piece of the classic formation, the phalanx was at the center, the archers and the peltasts from behind, and the cavalry march left and right of the phalanges.
History:
The Battle of Gaugamela was the decisive battle of Alexander the Great's invasion of the Persian Achaemenid Empire.
In 331 BC Alexander's army of the Hellenic League met the Persian army of Darius III near Gaugamela, close to the modern city of Dohuk (Iraqi Kurdistan).
Though heavily outnumbered, Alexander emerged victorious due to his army's superior tactics and his deft employment of light infantry.
It was a decisive victory for the Hellenic League and led to the fall of the Achaemenid Empire.

we're here!: 100 quotes.
"The soul becomes dyed with the colour of its thoughts." - Marcus Aurelius.
'kay, so...this only really makes sense if you know this one (not-so-)secret about me: i am a nefarious daydreamer.
so i'm not really holding a red umbrella while standing on an ottoman in my living room. really, i'm standing on a cliff edge over a river and i'm either about to walk on water or use the umbrella to help me fly across because i've got Nazgul or other scary things chasing me.
tl;dr: "soul/thoughts" = imagination = daydreaming + red umbrella which is colorful and looks cool = super special awesome photo.
...i dunno. it made sense in my head. (note: i haven't slept for 24 hours.)
