Hi Demitrios, You are a poet of a few but overwhelming words and phrases. Greece has got the most amazing scenery, a great deal of course is historical. Some scenes/sites bring sweet yet bitter thoughts whilst others sad thoughts which have once been sweet. If one can combine and capture both of these in one photo - Bravo! Think its time for a visit! Yasou, Jennifer.

Absolutely, the more we experience bitterness, pain, sadness, hunger, thirst - both, literally and figuratively - much and much more we appreciate bliss, and every single blessing granted to us.. a very profound and brilliant Monoku dear Demetrios. Always looking forward to reading your insightful poetry. My deepest regards. Be blessed always.
