Mans selfish ignorance failing to see where the real value lies. So sad to realize. Be blessed and enjoy your weekend with your love ones my friend...

True dear Michael. Unfortunately. They do not know what they risk to miss just for a few fleeting laughs. Blessings my friend. Thank you!

Humans fall for the temptation of the ephemeral--deep thoughts my friend. Your photo--nature at its best.

Yes, they unfortunately do . Only at the end of their lives they remember the eternal. Thank you for your kind comment my dearest friend, Vijay. God bless you!
