Re: To Whom It May Concern
Today, as some of you may know, is the ancient Egyptian new year. It's not a random date. July 19th was when the Nile began to flood (so regular, people could set their calendars by it). I've been in the forest today, walking in the rain, and I had a thought. Egypt is not much of a country for rain. When the Egyptians wrote of proper rain in other countries, they called it the Sky Nile. It seemed appropriate that, today, the Sky Nile was in flood.
