Filled with a whole host of English words. Archaism. Wit and humour.
It's also a rant book in disguise. Aimed at understanding, ridiculing and openly chastising the constants of 'Wattpad Tomfoolery'.
On my rather dull walk to work this weekend morning; I did verily stumble upon a pebble. (Not literally, mind you. That would have been a tad humiliating. Although none were awake at that ungodly hour except for 'Yours Truly.')
No, you simpletons; 'stumbled upon' is yet another term for 'finding or acquiring something intriguing'.
Congratulations. You've learned something new.

Digressing... Actually upon closer inspection, this spectacular pebble wasn't as modest as I first thought it to be. Yes it had caught my eye (Not literally speaking). But it had caught my attention. Therefore, because I was early and enjoying my brisk walk, I chanced a closer inspection of it.
Not a pebble. I found it to be a tumbled and highly polished 'worry stone.'
Intense bright striped orange.
It was laying there, unobstructed of my journey. On an tarmac path. Yes we call it a path or a pavement. Not a sidewalk.
Savages....
Anyway. Bizarrely, I don't believe in coincidences. Just as I don't believe in superstition. What black cat? It died crossing my path. Cause of Death: Articulated Heavy Goods Vehicle.
And I don't believe in happenchance or fortuity either. Things happen for a reason. Simply put: The stone was there as I looked down at that exact moment, literally and metaphorically. Next to my right foot.

It's Agate. Agates are minerals that serve to settle the energies and provide physical, emotional and intellectual balance to the person. They help with focus and stability of physical energy. They have the power to harmonise ying and yang, positive and negative forces, in addition to calming and relieving.
Psychologically, it facilitates the acceptance of oneself by promoting self-confidence. It assists to improve one's concentration, perception and analytical skills.
Emotionally, it helps people to overcome the negativity and bitterness that has been placed on the heart. It heals internal anger and fosters love and courage in adversity.
It raises awareness and links it with the collective, thereby encouraging contemplation and assimilation of life experiences on a spiritual level.
At the healing level, the agate stabilizes one's aura by eliminating or transforming negative energies.
