I love the wisdom and humility in this. And appreciate the openness with which these views have been assimilated - and that from a different culture from across continents and races. It is a wonderful example of what it means to learn from each other, to learn from nature and to learn from our social and commercial orders in life. And the women... well, guess that's up for you men to decide! But it's interesting that in all cultures at all times, these three are absorbing features of the ways in which we shape our lives and thinking. Bless you and thank you. This was intriguing.

Abdillahi, this is a unique offering, things do change in other places, may Allah change Somalia's status to one of peace and prosperity. And may he keep you and all the good people of Somalia safe for Somalia.

You write well, keep it going.

Each of the three can change like the wind. Weather takes a little getting used to, but after a while it will be second hand. You have penned this one in such a sincere way.
Work, well sometimes it changes, sometimes you change. Women......no different than men, always changing their minds.......

Good write, enjoyed reading!

Be safe,
Karen

Abdullahi,

And the weather is getting all the more unpredictable. Even in places used to one way, patterns are changing and the atmosphere in upheaval: as they say here in Texas, if you don't like the weather, wait a minute. :)

As for work and women, you've got it spot on!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

It doesn't matter where in the U.S. you travel
The water has been very unpredictable
This year In my hometown the day beguines
So beautiful and about 3to 4 ours later
We get severe warnings of thunderstorms and
Tornado warnings
Yes I do agreed with you and the other two
Work can be slow and it is very dangers at times!
Excellent message within this write
Love And Peace to you always
Your friend...Morning Star

It probably doesn't matter where in the vast U.S. you travel, my friend, the weather can truly change quite abruptly in only a matter of minutes. As for the other two, I can only say, Best of Luck!
