Success and failure built who we are.. each has to strive to achieve their very success and growth.. and never be content with others achievements nor hindered or frustrated by others failures and defeats.. a great message in a wonderful couplet, dear Demetrios! A joy to read. Be blessed always.

Emulate a person's success, but never be daunted by their failure. One should always regard it as a learning curb. Well said my dearest friend....Maria xxx

I am aware that no one listens my friend , WW, however , I would rather write something meaningful and unpopular than something meaningless and popular! God bless you for listening my friend!
