On Thursday, May 20, stars from HBO's Insecure took to Instagram to share photos from the final table read. See the pics. Not immediately crying after seeing the photos from Insecure 's final table read? That's growth. On Thursday, May 20, several stars from the Issa Rae -created comedy took to Instagram to share pics from the read through for "Episode 510." As E! News readers well know, in January, it was announced that Insecure would be ending after its fifth season. And, from what we saw on social media, the beginning of the end is near for the series. First up, Yvonne Orji , who plays powerhouse attorney and Issa's BFF Molly Carter, posted a close-up photo of the last script. "The final episode," she wrote. "Deng. This really is good-bye. I'mo miss y'all. @insecurehbo" This Is Us star Susan Kelechi Watson clearly resonated with this upload as she commented, "Let me know how you got thru it. mine coming up." Like Insecure , This Is Us is coming to an end following its upcoming season. Of course, Yvonne wasn't the only cast member to commemorate the final table read. Next to a photo of his name placard and script, Jay Ellis shared, "That's all she wrote. and she wrote the s--t outta it! #insecurehbo" The Art of Novel Kintsugi. The nurse clips Ben’s notes onto the wall. ‘Hmm,’ he says as he draws the curtains. ‘I patch up a fair few lads your age, Ben. Kids who have been to hell and back and I’ll let you into a secret. I’ve seen in their eyes what I see in yours. We can mend broken bones and pack ‘em with pills, but often the real pain is up here.’ He taps his temple. ‘Only you can fix that, because only you know what needs fixing. You’re better qualified than any of us lot. Think about it. Talk about it if you want to. Just don’t bottle it up.’ He draws the curtain behind him as he leaves. Chapter Nineteen: The Memory of Time Spent Healing, draft one. Ben Stafford is a broken kid. I mean, properly broken, and the worst thing is he refuses to believe it. I haven’t updated this blog in six months. I haven’t completed a chapter of The Breath of Ages in three or four. The Novel is broken. Properly broken. I used to think Writer’s Block was a myth – that if you sat in front of your laptop for long enough you’d find inspiration and the words would type themselves. No. I don’t believe that any more. I used to think, if I just wrote The Bill and Ted Way I could fix plot holes and go back and mend things at a later stage. No. It doesn’t work all the time. This Summer I started to think differently. The joys of ‘pantsing’ a novel mean you can be completely surprised by the twists and turns of a story as you type it. But it also means you can find yourself down a random ally that turns into a dead end. The story was going nowhere. I’d introduced two new characters and one new – huge – villain who, whilst exceptionally fun to write, was diverting the story away from its roots. The story of one, broken, kid and his two friends. So, last week, I recognised what Ben cannot. It was hard, but I’ve ripped at least 5,000 words from the novel and started the middle of the book again. And, do you know what? It’s worked. By going back to basics, I’ve rediscovered the story I want to tell. I want Ben, Gemma and Tam to all complete the journeys I’ve laid out for them in my head. I want to tell their story. By stripping away what wasn’t necessary – and working out where the true heart of this book lies – I’m rediscovering what I enjoyed about it in the first place. In the antique shop at the beginning of the book, Ben spies an old dish that had once been shattered but repaired with gold. At the end of the book he discovers its nature. It is an example of Kintsukoroi, or Kintsugi – the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold or silver lacquer. Like him, he is told, the bowl is more beautiful for having been broken. Perhaps, in order to achieve their true worth, sometimes novels need to get broken too. The End. In the Bible, what is known as “the last days” or “the end times” or what some call the Apocalypse are a period of the last 7 years on Earth. Jesus makes it abundantly clear that we cannot know the specific date that the end times will commence . But we can know the signs of the end times approaching. And there are plenty: The Moral Corruption of Society: 1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; — Does this sound like society today? Of course it does. Turn on television for a few hours and it becomes quite obvious. Once again we see the culture has moved from one that revered God and strived to be righteous to modern day where sin, greed, sexual immorality and rebellion are once again celebrated. Wars and rumors of war keep increasing. Christian mass grave in Jos, Nigeria (March 8, 2010). These are just 5 of the signs the Bible provides, but there are many more. Beginning and End’s purpose is to show that the Bible is correctly prophesying what is taking place in our society today. We do not know when the last period of the Earth will commence, but the signs of it approaching become more and more apparent all over the world. And Jesus Christ made it clear that just as it was in the days of Noah, the same signs will take place. And most of the world will ignore the warnings and not be concerned about their spiritual state. This site is here to point the reader to God’s Word and realize, there is nothing more important than the state of your soul. Many people are starting to see where society is headed and are sharing knowledge. While this is laudable, it’s not the ultimate answer. Spiritual forces are at work and it is crucial that we all make sure that we are right with God before the days of His judgment on the world. And just like God provided the ark to protect Noah and his family from the flood, today we have salvation in Jesus Christ to make sure that we are safe from all harm. The End. So what is the end of all this, the destruction of the Earth? Everyone getting lost in global catastrophes? No. The End of these things is Jesus Christ ruling right here on a restored Earth. Just as things were in the beginning, so shall they will be in the end. God, in His love for all of us, has provided a way for us to be redeemed and be a part of His beloved family again, despite all of the sin and rebellion of humanity. As society becomes even more advanced and more convinced that they can “be as Gods” there will be one final attempt to unify and usurp The Lord under the leadership of a False “Messiah”. And this ultimate rebellion will be met with ultimate judgment. And this is why everyone ultimately has to choose to accept God’s free invitation of forgiveness and eternal life or take the world’s seductive offer of believing in yourself as “having it all figured out” and not worrying about God or your soul. Do not be deceived. Heaven awaits those who believe and pass away in the interim, but once the years of judgment are complete, God is ready to make everything all over and bring this world back to its original pristine, peaceful state with humanity living in loving harmony with Him. Knowing history from start to finish, He sent His own Son to provide a way back home, to paradise as God originally intended. And the time we have between now and judgment is a sign of His patience as He waits for us to wake up and make the right decision and believe in Him. Read through the site and consider with an open mind what The Word of God is saying and what society is showing us. Yes a judgment is coming but the bigger and better news is that God is planning a true restoration of this world and rewards for those who believe in Him. God’s Ultimate Plan: To restore peace and order to this world. “But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9. “ I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end..” — Jesus Christ, Revelation 22:13.
