...catch yourself completely mesmerized by something (an idea, image, thought whatever have you be it) that everything around you seems to dissapear? Where conversations stop in mid sentence and where even for just a minute, you are completely taken to a whole other realm? This happened today with Kosta actually in Artopolis after we had eaten our lunch and were dreading going back to work.
As we stepped up to the bar to pay for our Greek coffee that we had just had, ( I was already bouncing off the walls...not used to drinking Greek coffee) we looked up and saw the television showing imagery and amazing scenes from Greece. And they just kept coming...not sure if it was some promotion...but I just caught myself drawn to the images of the beaches, parties, family scenes, the ancient sites, the islands...and I started being flooded with memories of my past summers that I had spent in Greece.
The waitress looked at us and was like, "BRE! Ti pathate re paidia,'' as we continued to glare off like we were looking into outer space. Kosta and I came out of our little dream phase we were in and I thought to msyelf... Ellada me ta orea sou.

kiki... ...i'm sure that happens to most of us that cling to daily frappe, for that connection that we need!!
for me, one of the images that sends me back is a taratsa, like the one above. lots of memories connected to the taratsa.
