Me, In Pieces… – Tropical Affair
https://tropicalaffair.me/me-in-pieces
Observations of the illusion through the eyes of wonder…. Me, In Pieces…. See that tiny reflection…in that miniscule drop of water….a part of the condensation on a huge mirror that reflects my entire image most days? BTW, I love to cook. More importantly, to. The very word makes me want to whip out flour, sugar, butter and spices, bringing heavenly smells into the house and huge smiles to the faces of all the people I love. I designed cakes for awhile which was great fun; but with a history of writin...

https://robinp823.wordpress.com/2014/05/22/just-be-with-it
Marshrutkas and McDonalds: An American in Ukraine. A topnotch WordPress.com site. Skip to primary content. Just Be With It. May 22, 2014. Platitudes of appreciation and affirmation run through my brain. Utilizing my breathing exercises, I move the pranna, my life force, throughout my body. But, I tell myself to stop. I just need to be with it. But, Ms. Kornblatt saw signs of possible emotional distress. Well intentioned but a bit too serious, she often called my parenting skills into question....The w...

Visiting Border Towns | Eurasia Days
https://susanmacbryde.com/2015/08/02/visiting-border-towns
Posted by Susan MacBryde. August 2, 2015. Life is tense in towns on the Armenian border with Azerbaijan where Azeri soldiers sporadically terrorize the residents with sniper fire. Sometimes they kill. They once shot into a kindergarten. In these towns, the children have no safe and healthy places to play. Our mission? From the back seat. Hasmik drives (a very new skill for Armenian women) while Varsik navigates with her GPS. Hasmik Azibekyan and Varsik Nerkararyan are my Armenian counterparts, each an NG...

Walking Into Walls | Eurasia Days
https://susanmacbryde.com/2015/05/31/walking-into-walls
Posted by Susan MacBryde. May 31, 2015. Wall to my host’s home in foreground. Just when I’m ready to throttle some Armenians for standing in the way of their own progress they surprise me. The old way in another wall. Wall by the 91 stairs. So when I learned that a new grocery store was being built, I was shocked. What might this do to the balance of buying in Ijevan? Would people perhaps like this store with its touchable shelves of things you can pick up, turn around in your hand, and look at? I’ll be ...

Bravo! | Eurasia Days
https://susanmacbryde.com/2015/07/01/bravo
Posted by Susan MacBryde. July 1, 2015. An Armenian fellow told me that Armenia has a past and a future, but no present. I’d have to agree. Its beginnings were poetic and mysterious, its future probably brilliant, but its present is a state of confusion, though there is cultural mastery honoring the past and guiding future vision. Le Petit Paris,. Komitas Chamber Music Hall. Mihat tom ays gisheri hamergi hamar,. Or something to that effect. I want one ticket for tonight’s concert. Oh, we don’t ha...At th...
