There is this unique insurance your works always give my expectations And that satisfaction only builds more castles for my curiosity to thrive, waiting for subsequent results of your talent and thinking.

LOL ... sorry, but I just think that's really ironic how you follow Nietzsche's advice, which tells you not to repeat the advice of others. I can see the humor there. I do that on occasion, but it's rare. Mainly when I'm reminded of something, and it comes to mind ... I'll remember to avoid doing that in the future.

My friend Timothy what Nietzsche says is this:" It is better to write your own things than to repeat the writings of others." What he wishes to say is to write something ourselves is much better than just to repeat the works of other people , even if what we write is not as worthy as what others have written. I follow his advice because I want to be a poet ( a creator) myself! Thank you mu good friend!

You very lucky to have Quality friends! Aristotle said that to have many friends means you have none! You have only very few which is beautiful. Thank you!

When we aspire to the ideal we increase our odds substantially. I am sure you are blessed in this part of your life.
