...but one day is for the owner; what a good ol' proverb. And its words are so true because no matter how long a lie goes it'd take but only a moment for the truth to catch up. But what about your things the thief stole during his "everyday" period? The feeling of loss you felt when he carted away your treasure chest. Would the "one day" which is yours as the owner, be enough to recompense your loss? My advice? Safeguard your treasures; protect your jewels such that not every- day will be the thief's - maybe he might still get a day or two (credit of his skills). And when that day which is yours - the owner's - come; Hehehehehe! I leave you to your discretion.
