Good day Charles Oshiro Elham and all, Yes,it was considerate of you to remember replying to me in case I'm worried about your well-being...;) That,I have trained you well,haven't I?LOL
Another member John Awesome,you and I often used to exchange messages with ,must be having a great time in Berlin now!!! I remember the feeling of going with the flow of the game when you were so devoted to it that you forgot the world around you or the time that was slipping by... Am I close there? Psychologists call these kinds of moments:'real moments.' It sounds quite intriguing to me as if all other moments of your days or life are fake!!!LOL I have no specific clue why but I've been feeling sentimental lately... It could be that after staying away from a routine life for a few days,I start to see my life in a different perspective!;) Do whatever that makes you happy,Charles! It you don't,no one will...as I often tell another friend of mine here...;) Have a great time on the court!
