Indeed, I want in my heart to become a person who is quite well-off materially and essentially happy. Not grandiose, enough to have a luxury car and house, a beautiful wife, high degrees in the office, have the title of professor, children who study abroad.
That might be my wishes, but maybe if I saw that desire I would consider myself pathological. However, life doesn't need stability anyway.
Life can be lived only with happiness. But I will sneer at you with the words 'eat that happiness' because the people who say that are only envious, envious, spiteful people and their friends. Do you know that shirk is a sign of being unable.
I have to look for media that is appropriate, effective and efficient to find that there is indeed a woman who loves to be loved. Regardless of status, stratification, orientation, religion and ethnicity. However I am aware that at this time I am not yet well established materialistically and academically, but if there is, who knows, someone will want to be with me.

The space-time separating them is so strong that no one can penetrate it

Honesty, they say she does lack.

A dignity and identity,
Yet perceived to be arrogant.
...
For anyone sold,
On racism to buy.
And invest in it.
Along with division and disparities,
...
With a silenced mind,
Listen to them find...
Excuses to make for themselves.
And those who make excuses,
...
They've been conditioned to believe,
What happens to them in their environment...
Is a reflection of society and the general public.
And what has been done to them has been effective.
...
Whoever decided,
People will pay to stay...
Where historic myths exist,
And a quality of life...

Today,
Although needless and serves no purpose...
There are those still making attempts to escape,
With an erasing of their true 'selves'.

'Jivaeri' (Jiva-eri) .Precious jewel or treasure.
'It's a beautiful, traditional Greek Island folk song of unknown authorship.I grew up listening to this song and it always had a special place in my heart.So I recorded this version with the hope of exposing it to a wider audience around the World.This song is about a Mother lamenting the loss of her child due to emigration.(In Greece many families send their children to foreign lands with the hope of a better life.) In retrospect, the mother regrets having sent her child away and the pain she feels has caused her to now humbly and quietly walk on this Earth.'

This is only suitable for preserving in the billiard balls,
Sustaining the culture has been like the extinct saber truth,
That is only suitable for experimental use.

You had many life decisions to make.
Where on Earth do I want to live?
Who will I choose for parents?

Within institutions...
Kept to worship everywhere.
It would not matter,

Who amongst us today lives,
Without being affected...
By tribal ancestral racism?
And who are they that can say,
...
Even beauty to present it,
Is not without...
Its flaws and blemishes.
Behind,
...
It is not the past...
Gone to have had.
In need to be corrected.
Microscoped and examined.
...
Insecurities mended.
And long to have healed.
With decisions to make.
Admitting my own mistakes.
...
What is the effective objective,
Does anyone expect.
By continually bashing,
Actions taken by others...
