I thank the universe for allowing us to witness these two.
I didn’t watch Pele.
I didn’t watch Maradona.
But I watched Ronaldo: the Portuguese Robot
and Messi; the Argentine Magician.
When my kids ask me about greatness,
I won’t tell them stories…
I’ll tell them I saw it live.
Who gave you more unforgettable moments: Ronaldo or Messi?
And do you also know, People traditionally use scent leaf for digestion, colds, and general wellness, but those traditional uses are not the same as proven medical treatment.
