My friend, this is a profound and extremely wise words. Sadly, they never give any consideration to the results that will come from their acts. Living a life devoid of the soul is equivalent to being dead while still breathing.

I hope they think it was worth it, once sold they'll never get it back, They've bought a one way ticket to hell. Tom
