I remember when I lived in Western Ukraine (I am not Russian, as some of you may have thought), I was extremely close to my family. My cousins were substitutes for my non-existent brothers and sisters; my grandparents and my aunts quite often played the role of my parents. (5) comments
There are so many moments in my life, especially of late, where I wished I had a tape recorder. The conversations I've held with loved ones and strangers alike never cease to amaze me in their humility, scope and candor.
