Day by day, time counts time and decision is sought.

Our Life is an Admission.
We go for the best;
We watch others;
We comment on others;
Our Journey, characterizes us all.

Good morning Sunday,
everything starts with you,
it all comes down to you.

In the Greek language,
your Name is Substantive.
Sunday in Greece,
It has inestimable value.

Good morning on Monday,
may we all be blessed.
May we have health and strength
and joy of Creation.

good morning, day Tuesday,
a day of anticipation,
at the beginning of the week,
where, everything is to be done.

Good morning Wednesday,
third day of the week,
a little always confuses them,
central is or medium;
The old years, however,
half was a holiday.

Good morning Thursday,
one more day remains,
but what's wrong with you?,
day you are blessed,
of Human Society.

Good morning Friday,
Greek Christians day,
it has unshakeable substance,
and for others, little value,
but also a work stoppage
and resting principle.

Good morning Saturday,
may we all be well,
Helium; Air, Rain or Snow;
In the morning shopping hours,
T’ afternoon rest,
hugs and love.
