It is a terrible thing that we are born with sensitive, weak spots and susceptible parts, which is known as drop-down vanity, as we are all rooted in weariness. A little bit hard to assimilate as it's thought-provoking. Fantastic how a monoku can hang on to impressive connotations. Very well done, David,

Hello Lasaad, you so totally get my intended interpretation, try explain world weariness to a child, will think your nuts. It just solidifies over time like the baby’s fontanels, thank you, cheers David
