12/06/08 This year my birthday "caught" me in Italy...In the morning I woke up and heard the sound of a delivered SMS. It was Ilaria. Her greeting reminded me that today I have to celebrate! Later followed other SMS's from my Lithuanian friends and I felt that this day they are with me wherever I am. The distance can't change the relationships if they are really strong and profound.
After entering the office, my colleagues greeted me with AUGURI (congratulations) kissing me on both cheeks, and it was pleasant to know that they are aware of the fact that today is my birthday!I was really satisfied and sat by my computer to start my work...After some time all colleagues gathered by my computer greeting me once again and gave me a beautiful orchid and a fantastic present that was a real Italian coffee machine. In addition to this, from Anna and her family I received the desired book of Susana Tamaro which I wanted to read in Italian...and... inside the envelope PER KRISTINA there was a birthday wish in Lithuanian:-) In the evening, after work, my colleagues came to me to have a toast for me and to drink CHAMPAGNE. Grazie, grazie, grazie for making my birthday a special day!
