On Saturday I was running the whole location in look of the welder, from buffer zone A to pholane - no welder. Sunday morning 06H00 I was on…

FROM A PARENT TO CHILD

I gave you life, but cannot live it for you

I can teach you things, but I cannot be there to lead you

I can give you directions, but I cannot be there to lead you

I can allow you freedom, but I cannot account for it

I can take you to church, but I cannot make you believe

I can teach right from wrong, but I cannot always decide for you

I can buy you beautiful clothes, but I cannot make you beautiful inside

I can offer you advice, but I cannot…
