Speaking of Happiness

Speaking to an unhappy man of one's earthly happiness 

is like displaying to a starving man food he cannot have!

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.

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
