when im annoyed that i have to pay 5 lari for watery coffee.
when im cold.
when the driver is smoking in the marshutka at 7am.
when im bummed i haven't heard from him.
when i have to teach.
id rather be finishing the interactive gallery teaching tool.
or explaining audience-center exhibition design.
Then I start the lesson,
tell me about an enjoyable experience you had during childhood.
use past simple.
don't worry about mistakes.
The stories come.
The memories of St. Petersburg
i was four years old, and with my father
he showed me everything.
it was beautiful, the streets were old.
it was cloudy.
i want to go back and see again, now that i am old
but they won't let us
The stories come.
That she grew up afraid
That he grew up angry. That they remember the loud sounds.
my neck doesn't seem so cold
my coffee isn't so bad.
and my heart a little less afraid, a little less in want.
and a lot more open.
