A mother's hug

Treats, candies, ice cream and a child's favorite toy will never replace the warmth and protection as a Mother's caress. The sense of security and love can not be replaced in any other way. And it costs nothing. Just a wonderful and meaningful gesture.

Synchronicity

I've been on a Greek bent. Just finished The Illiad and envy anyone who is about to read it. Followed the Macedonia Alexander to current-day Pakistan and back, made a new fried Michael Katakis whose father was born on Crete. Now meeting you.

Hugs are the best!

Greeks are everywhere, can't be avoided!
Belle, which translation of the Illiad did you read?
