Thanks Elizabeth,Just looking at some of these tacky "shows" on tv,so called dating
games,some of these shows are drifting towards soft-porn.We are bombarded with
adverts telling us all sorts of lies and offering false hopes,glamour and illusion are
all around us these days.


regards michael.


Humilty,coupled with boldness,surprises truth to
reveal herself?
