Egyptophosis

Time is symmetrically pure and mutable; it provides a holistic understanding for our existence and evolution, for time evolves and consequently has an unambiguous origin and preordained conclusion. There are certain grey areas remaining in the history of our minds that fascinate us so much about our origins, discoveries, and destination.

We, the Egyptians, view our civilization as a legacy coming directly from the divine beings who existed in Egypt thousands of years before the ancient Egyptian dynasties that we know about. For long thousands of years, we’ve been exposed to diverse cultural invasions that had a consensual influence on our behaviour over time till they became the underlying causes of more social, political, economic, and cultural phenomena that characterize Egyptian society in modern times.

A question that is as old as time and that will always remain is what does the future hold for such an experienced nation who invented the key of life?
