Taken at the airport two years back, when one would have the habit of going to airports and when red would be a color to make me happy and feel rejuvenated 🥰

“On my first day at my new workplace, the town’s only old people’s home. The head nurse introduced me to her team of staff and explained to me the daily routine.   The home had about 100 inhabitants. Some of them I had known from my childhood, grandparents of my childhood friends. Others were friends or neighbours of my own grannies, who lost their spouses and were left alone in their older years.  One day, I invited my grandmother for a visit. She was very hesitant and worried about her own feelings first. But coming to meet her friends turned out to be […]

“I lived in Paris at the time and on Wednesdays we would have weekly meetings for a circle of women. We would excitedly talk about the suffragette movement and how to improve the status of women.  One day, an American lady, the wife of a wealthy industrialist, stopped in town, on her way to the Holy Land. She told us she was about to travel to Akka in Palestine to learn more about unity and the equality of men and women. She wanted to meet the Head of the Baha’i faith there. It was 1904 and I had never heard about this […]

“She was determined to go to university. None of her girlfriends did but her parents were encouraging her aspirations and she became one of the best students of her class.  We met the same afternoon she had passed her final exam at the university and officially become a biology teacher. We bumped into each other at a nearby coffee. She was radiant and very excited about the future.  In fact, I took this photo of her and it is one of favourite ever since.”

She was a queen. Maybe not in the literal sense of the word but she was an example of uprightness, of honesty and dignity. She worked at a library and led many groups of children to discover the love of literature and the beauty of the arts. I can thank her for that as well.  And she would hold talks on love. I remember visiting the library with our class and listening to her read to us from a beautiful book of quotations she had compiled on Love:   “Love is heaven’s kindly light, the Holy Spirit’s eternal breath that vivifieth the human soul.”  […]

“It was a summer afternoon when the photographer came to my grandparents’ home. Grandpa being a writer and grandma a famous conductor, a local magazine was running an article about them and there was a photoshoot in their home. I was 16 at the time and loved spending summer vacations at their house and enjoying their library.  Grandma asked the photographer to take some pictures of me as well.  And if you ask now whether my grandparents were a source of inspiration in my life, my answer is absolutely yes. We spent many evenings debating on questions a teenager would want […]

“I grew up in a small town but my aunt promised me that when I turn 16, she would take me to the Opera in Budapest. I couldn’t wait!  Aunt Lili was a seamstress and she would get orders from Budapest as well. She knew the latest fashion trends and her studio was a paradise filled with beautiful fabrics. For my 16th birthday, she made this lovely black velvet dress for me to wear at the Opera. My grandson later made this photo of me on his computer and now this lovely dress is waiting for my sweet granddaughter to turn 16 too.”
