Absolutely, my dearest friend, Richard. Thank you for visiting and commenting, my old good friend, Richard. Hope all is well there, although I hear of 46 Celcius temperatures in Vancouver! Unbelievable! Blessings.

So true, Demetrios. I have sat and pondered this on many occasions, but you have expressed it in such concise terms. Thanks you.

This reminded me of a verse of Bhagvad Gita which says both good and bad are same as both are transient. profound thoughts.

My dearest, Rama, know that the truth comes from the same source, no matter the place or time we happen to find ourselves. If we are inspired by the same divine being then eventually we are going to say the same things. We cannot be poets if we repeat what others have said. We have to tell the same truth in different ways but always it will be the same truth for the truth is ONE! Thank you.

So true dear friend Demetrios; Humility is a powerful tool that must be used by those who want to succeed. In order for something to function, we must first have faith in God. Have a blessed day, and my kindest regards

True, however, we have to be grateful for what the Lord provides and not to be angry when withdraws his gifts. Thank you for your pertinent comments, my friend, Lasaad, Blessings.
