Love is two people who are "Becoming". Both are a work in progress. Not empty or broken, Becoming. Like a baby Sea turtle breaking out of their shell, one little chip breaking away at a time, until it can immerge! Or like Kintsugi, a Japanese art of repairing imperfections in a piece of pottery, rather than hiding them. Allowing the pottery to become a more beautiful and stronger piece of art. Love is simply two people becoming Stronger and more Beautiful Together...... Perfectly Imperfect, Sam & Ron #APerfectlyImperfectMarriage #StrongerTogether_APIM #letGodlead https://lnkd.in/eabxE94F

Ni-ankh-khnum & Khnum-hotep Tomb ( The BROTHERS tomb ) . The so-called Tomb of the Two Brothers is among the largest and most magnificently decorated in Saqqara. It belongs to Niankh-Khnum and Khnumhotep, both of whom held the titles “overseer of the manicurists of the Great House” and “prophet of Re at the Sun-temple of Niuserre” a Fifth-Dynasty king (c.2445–2421 BC). The tomb is a mastaba (Arabic for “bench”), a type of funerary structure that was generally rectangular in shape and built over the tomb proper, which was underground. The chapel of the tomb, where the cult of the tomb owners would be practiced, was generally located within the mastaba itself. Here, in addition to the chapel rooms within the mastaba, a part of it was cut out of the rock. The walls of the tomb are decorated with lively scenes of fishing with nets and spears, agriculture, butchery, gardening, carpentry, and jewelry-making. Another scene depicts a banquet during which both tomb owners are entertained by singers and dancers while musicians play their instruments. In an interesting tribute to the Two Brothers’ own profession, another scene shows barbers, manicurists and pedicurists at work. One particular scene, which is generally reserved for a man and his wife, depicts Niankh-Khnum and Khnumhotep in an intimate scene, standing close to one another. This, combined with the fact that they were both buried in the same tomb, has led to much speculation. Due to several factors, including the fact that each of them is represented with his wife, it is believed that Niankh-Khnum and Khnumhotep were identical twins. . . #Egyptology #ancient #History #like #Museum #pyramids #Egypt #Art #fayoumdesert #AncientEgypt #Archaeology #follow #travelphotography #history #fayoum #old #traveltoegypt #treasure #cairo #visit

GEMFIELDS GUIDE TO GEMS - THE 7CS: CLARITY Gemstones are cherished for their beauty, durability and rarity. While colour contributes to a gemstone’s allure and uniqueness, it is clarity that accentuates its resilience. In the world of gemmology, clarity delves into the presence and nature of inclusions and blemishes within a gemstone, unveiling its origin and journey. In a poetic twist, these marks embody each gemstone’s unique essence, making it uniquely yours. A desirable gemstone will feature inclusions that don’t stand out too proudly but silently contribute to its beauty. Certain varieties of coloured gemstones increase in value due to specific clarity features, whilst too many inclusions will affect a gem’s transparency, brilliance, and even durability.
