Hi Jendhamuni, I hope all is well. I have missed all you great posts from Google Plus. You were one of my favor individuals. This is an accurate post. Every Choice we make is a direct reflection of who we are, they type of person we are. Even though I don’t believe in a god, I always try to do the right thing, be kind and helpful, understanding and respectful of other people, their beliefs and cultures.
How is your family? How is your Nephew doing? I am sure it has been hard on him since he lost his mother (your sister).

So nice to hear from you again, Michael.
I did not forget about you at all. I miss our Google plus friends so much, especially our little circle of friends back then.
My late little sister’s son and all of us here are doing well despite the coronavirus pandemic. Hope things are going well on your end. Stay safe.
May peace be upon you always, Michael.
