the more you have,
the longer you live.

You have the courage to succeed.
Медовий місяць:
4000 years ago, in Babylonia, when a couple got married, the bride’s father had to provide his son-in-law with a full month supply of mead. Mead is a honey beer. The Babylonians measured a month by the moon, so the month of honey beer service was called the “honeymoon”.

Some people are always grumbling because roses have thorns;
I am thankful that thorns have roses.”

Далі декілька рубаї від Омар Хаяама
Коли у небуття і ймення наше кане,
Не згасне сонечко у небі полум'яне.
Нас не було, та світ не був від того гірший;
Він не погіршає й тоді, як нас не стане.
I юних, і старих - всіх поглинає час,
I невеликий нам дається днів запас.
Ніщо не вічне тут: ми підемо так само,
Як ті, що вже пішли й що прийдуть після нас.
