Several years ago I was on a tour of Ukraine with a group of people (14 of us including my mother whose parents were born there) and we arrived in Lvov in the late afternoon. Our tour leader had a cousin in Lvov who had invited her to dinner at he and his wife's home. As the bus pulled into the hotel parking, he was there waiting to greet her, and take her to dinner. When he saw the 14 of us, he wasted no time in inviting us all for dinner. He phoned his wife and casually said that there would be another 14 for dinner rather than just the one!!!! I can't imagine what the reaction was at the other end. The evening however could not have been better having dinner under the branches of an apple tree in the warm Lvov evening. The image above is a photograph of our dinner table that evening, although I have adjusted it to look more artsy!!!
"To the world you may be just one person, but to one person you may just be the world."
Live well and prosper.
