Remembering & celebrating vs. sorrow


27th September is a day of remembrance for both, Georgians and Abkhazians. However, there is a huge difference how we remember it. Abkhazians were celebrating the day as a day of Independence, while Georgians were grieving about fall of Sukhum. For blog such as ours, promoting brotherhood between people, is very difficult to write something about this event without making angry one or another side and without being emotional. We can't stand somewhere in middle. There is nothing in between, either you feel sorry or you celebrate. I feel sorry, sorry for everything that happened to people. And yes, it makes me angry, but yet I feel committed to friendship and well being of both, Georgians and Abkhazians. I hope that our future brings us other kind memorable days, that our next generations can remember all positive things and celebrate our brotherhood together.

Above on the picture you can see celebration of Independence day in Abkhazia. On the next photo you see how people fled from the region for their lifes in 1993.

Share your feelings about this day and let us now, if you could find golden middle between this two approach, could you?
