Wise words Demetrios... Another Demi-Truth. I have coined a new phrase to describe your intellectual pieces. Demi-Truth my friend... Great health to you my friend...

Demetrios when I wrote Demi it was for Demetrios. It wasnt Semi. It is the whole truth my friend...

Hahaha, we have to be careful dearest, Michael for there is the danger to be coined as ...half truth. Thank you for your support and your trust. Blessings.

Thank you very much for your lovely visit and comment dear, Vijay. Here in Greece these flowers are very common and very resilient ones.

So true Demetrios, we all deserve to be happy but sometimes an event in our lives puts us in the starving man's shoes. Enjoy your weekend Tom
