I am laughing here Tom, the picture i have of me on FB is when i was a child so no-one would recognize it anyway. it is good though to be able to type in a name from the past and see how that person's life has panned out, and it does bring back memories, especially the school groups where there are ...

The perfect dream, and it can be achieved but to know peace and harmony we also have to have known the other side of the spectrum for us to seek it out..
