Why is there so much competition and dissatisfaction though
Human beings are insatiable.

I need a quiet place to contemplate on the realities of life. I'm swept off by the everyday hustle and bustle. Bills, rivalries, haters, mistakes of the past and repeated patterns. I think I need a new place and space to detoxify and access the depths of my minds capacity to reason

Unfortunately it's same everywhere but the pattern might differs to some extent. You just need a contentment personality and be a good person and let the chips fall where they may.

Not a fan of Mercedes. Probably wouldn't buy one even if I could afford it. tongue

But...there's always been something special about Benz styling. The SEL in those pictures is long gone...but that chrome grille, the chrome bumpers, the chrome windshield borders...the general low sitting profile of the vehicle...they all say something about Mercedes designers and how they saw their cars.

Mercedes designers again struck gold with the styling of the CLS models of the early 2000s. Those C219 Mercedes designers must have started work with a teardrop as the design motif. I don't think any other executive saloon car from that era even comes close, styling wise.

Fantastic styling. Pity about Mercedes reliability - real shame the cars just don't hold up very well over time.

Dude, the automobiles were crusing on German Autobahn. Nigeria has no Autobahn, even now.

Check out the plate numbers of those vehicles - Hamburg, Hannover, Augsburg.

If you have the money, sleep at the Beach. The waves will help you think about life.

If you want cheap way, try Sunday morning when people have gone to church. Walk around. All you need is some peace and quiet.

Russian car, Lada in yellow at the back middle lane, good old Volkwagen bus, combi or danfo, lane2; 3 now-old mercedes benz 180/200 in there too, 2 Peugeot cars following each other right lane, back;, opel car right lane, looks like a VW Golf car, middle lane, Audi in the left lane in front of those caravan-like trucks.....etc

Those cars served us in the world then; very rugged and reliable, but age has condemned them all now, except those that their owners painstakingly took great care of them. That's life.

The Son of The Almighty said: heaven (the skies above us-the clouds, space etc) and earth will pass away, "BUT MY WORDS WILL NEVER PASS AWAY" . HOLY BIBLE-- Matthew chapter24:35
Those and others have passed away as foretold, indeed, ONLY THE WORDS OF GOD will never pass away....Hold unto His Holy Word
