I just received one of those annoying chain letters, that promises untold fortunes if you forward it, and dire consequences if you do not. Since when does someone wishing you good thing threatens you in the same breath? The logic of these letters defies me, and the intention of the people forwarding it seems to be based more on fear than on circulating "good luck." It had however a cute "proverb" (supposedly a Chinese proverb from Holland - apparently, Americans are not the only ones who are really bad in geography ;o) so I am copying here the proverb only for your reading entertainment.
Love,
Tamara
