Hi Zimmy, so nice to have you back again.

Thankfully, my life has been a good one so far. I have my health and my family. There has been many bad moments too, mostly from what I have to deal with in my job.

The good ones I remember, the bad ones I fight with until they are defeated and forgotten. So I would say, I remember more good ones. I suppose I'm one of those people that refer to the good old times when talking about the past....Show more
