Don’t Let Hate Define You — Choose Honour Instead
Even though these words from the Hávamál are over a thousand years old, they still carry wisdom for today. Real strength isn’t about force or anger — it’s about living with honour, earning respect, and building trust. Don’t let hate or bitterness define you. Instead, focus on kindness, loyalty, and the friendships that give life true meaning.
- You are not here by accident.
You are not here by accident. The Norns weave no thread without purpose, and every scar, storm, and trial has been given to forge you stronger. Like Yggdrasil scarred yet unbroken, you endure, and like the gods who sacrificed for wisdom and truth, your worth is proven in courage, not perfection. You are wyrd made flesh, a living saga still being written—rise, carry fire, and walk forward knowing the gods walk with you.
The Norns, Wyrd, and Courage: Walking Your Chosen Path
The Norns may weave the threads of wyrd, but it is your choices that give them strength or weakness. Like Yggdrasil scarred yet unbroken, you are forged by storms, not destroyed by them. The gods never asked for perfection—only courage: Odin gave his eye for wisdom, Týr his hand for truth, Gullveig her life for rebirth. Each deed is a rune upon your saga. Will yours speak of fear, or of fire and strength?
