It is one of the wonderful surprises of blogging! It means so much to me to connect with our culture. One day I will visit!!<BR/>Alexa kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03506005179177196924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8112863176894213784.post-64998390113568857982008-03-24T10:07:00.000-04:002008-03-24T10:07:00.000-04:00I began reading your second post about Greece and I was moved by the beautiful way you describe the story of your family. When I came to the part where you mention that your father would be amazed by the internet and that you've been reading a Greek blog which is helping you connect with the life they left behind, I could not believe that you were referring to my blog and I started crying. Thank you so much Alex, this means so much to me to know that I contribute just a little bit to help you and some others, of Greek origin, who live abroad, all over the world to get a small glimpse about their home country and learn about their beautiful homeland.Ivyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12370053555998889434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8112863176894213784.post-59463143850513688762008-03-15T00:46:00.000-04:002008-03-15T00:46:00.000-04:00thanks for your comments!

It's so nice that you connect with your heritage. I love the picture - which one are you?<BR/>A funeral is a time of grieving, but when you believe in an afterlife with our Lord, it's a time of celebrating as well. This man, Vasi, will surely be waiting for you and your family members in heaven.<BR/>Beatasum (aka mertonens)Beatasumhttp://faithfoodflowers.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8112863176894213784.post-18313289007512168592008-03-14T14:51:00.000-04:002008-03-14T14:51:00.000-04:00Hi Alex, I'm in a bit of a hurry (got to pick up my husband), but I will be back to read your posts at length.<BR/>Please stop by Catholic Me and read my latest post to help out a troubled teen.<BR/>Peace!<BR/>mertonensBeatasumhttp://faithfoodflowers.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8112863176894213784.post-52738072111746930222008-03-13T23:58:00.000-04:002008-03-13T23:58:00.000-04:00Sometimes I think we have come too far too fast and many simply can't handle it.<BR/><BR/>We want things now and if we are told to wait many have rage tantrums. <BR/><BR/>I have to admit I fall into the impatient category...Whenever the electricity fails I am the one in the family who is trying to find HOW to phone them and COMPLAIN..because I have been without electricity for 3 hours? How spoilt am I?!Very!<BR/><BR/>We can learn SO much by those who lived in a different generation and we NEED too especially myself.<BR/><BR/>Thankyou Alexsandra:) a beautiful post:).<BR/><BR/>Peace & love to you:)<BR/><BR/>Marie xoxoxoMariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17337722432805966125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8112863176894213784.post-28809407191386289172008-03-12T23:09:00.000-04:002008-03-12T23:09:00.000-04:00Excellent post..
