Frith is an Old English word that means Peace and Freedom; but means so much more. It is an important concept in the religion of Asatru. It might be described as a combination of loyalty, honor, hospitality, and support. It is the obilgation to one's community, friends, and family to consider their welfare in your actions, and not to set out to harm them.
Our forebears valued frith almost more than anything else.

Father Time

The personification of Time and the more friendly version of the Grim Reaper. Typically pictured as an old man with a white beard doning a cloak and oft times carrying a scythe and hourglass. In ancient times he was known as Chronus or Saturn.

Father Time is married to Mother Earth; just as the Grim Reaper, the personification of Death, is married to Life who pictured as a young lady in artwork.

He symbolizes the flow of time and its effects. His old body is a reminder that time is the devourer of all things and that, like the sand in the hourglass he often carries, his life will run out, as all good things come to an end.
He turns the seasons around
And so she changes her gown
But they always look in their prime
They go on dancing their dance
Of every lasting romance
Mother Earth and Father Time
The summer larks return to sing
Oh what a gift they give
Then autumn days grow short and cold
Oh what a joy to live
How very special are we
For just a moment to be
Part of life’s eternal rhyme
How very special are we
To have on our family tree
Mother Earth and Father Time

Eric the Red

The famous Viking explorer credited with the discovery and settlement of Greenland. 935-1001 AD

Eric Thorvaldsson was born in Jeoderen, Norway and settled in Iceland with his family. He then became a Norse Chieftain. He was well know for his volitile temperament which earned him the nickname of "Eric the Red" and he ended up being exiled from Iceland for three years for murder. He and his wife, Thorhild, had four children, Freydis, Leif, Thorvald, and Thorsteinn. During his banishment, Eric the red decided to sail west, and he found a huge island; he named the island Greenland in order to make it sound pleasant and to encourage settlers to come there, which they did.
Eric the Red is the father of Leif Eriksson who went on to become one of the first Europeans to sail to North America.

Penta

A patented form of drinking water. It has some unique characteristics that are not found in other water such as a higher boiling point, higher surface tension, and a lower viscosity. The name “Penta” comes from the word pentamer, the theoretical most basic cluster of H2O molecules needed to form liquid water.

Penta water is the cleanest-known bottled water in the world. Therefore is one of the most popular in health food stores.

Penta water goes though a 11-hour, 13 step purification process that removes any and every impurity found in water.(9 stages of filtration, 3 stages of bacteria removal, and a patented Penta Process) is why Penta measures only about 0.5 parts per million (ppm) of total dissolved solids.

Penta is the only bottle water that does not have any taste of plastic, salt, minerals, or chemicals that is so often found in bottle water. You can leave it out all day in the heat of your car and it still tastes clean and crisp. The bottles do not leech into the water at all because they are made out of the highest grade plastic.
Once you drink Penta, you'll find it hard to drink any other bottle water.
