  1. Thanks for the recent follow! Since I’m really just puting random thoughts out there, I’m sure I can also be very wrong with things. If that should be the case, just call me out on it!
    Regards and respects.

  3. Hi Phoebe, thanks for taking the time to read and follow my blog.
    Amazing that human nature has the capacity to bring great happines to others through giving – while that same nature has the capacity to bring great suffering and misery to others through getting. Duality of man-kind!

    After reading some of your postings I would like to sign-up as a follower.
    I look forward to reading more of them.

    Warmest regards

    John
