Hopefully no more losing loved ones this year and no more surgeries for me this year. Have a lovely new year everyone. I will be leaving very soon for Slovakia to my new life. Have a good one guys. All the very best.

All in all, happiness devolves to a few things, and most of us find ourselves distracted from the real causes of happiness.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
