Hi eveybody!

Hereīs one my brother once taught me:
"Itīs like hitting the dead horse", meaning itīs useless. I was very much in love with a very sweet guy who was unfortunately not that much in love with me, so he said: Sweetie, itīs like hitting the dead horse. It was not a happy comment but definitely instructive.
