You make me smile...head in bandage, arms in caste...hopping on one leg I'll go into "Paradise" definitely would like a more "holistic" entrance

My dearest friend, Arturo, when we are going to be out of shape because life has "dealt with us" the wise will ask for more! So good you are back! Thank you so very much!
