Today is Forgiven Sunday.
The last Sunday before lent in Russian Orthodox religion is called a Forgiven Sunday. It concludes the joyful week of "Maslenniza", eating crepes with caviar and other delicacy is not obligated, but very enjoyable, especially when you keep in mind the 40 days Lent "Veliukiy Post" that starts tomorrow and lasts till Easter.
The Forgiven Sunday is special holiday, when people forgive their friends and even enemies and ask for forgiveness from everybody...
One of the wisest and most meaningful church holidays - even non-religious people, while asking for forgiveness and granting forgiveness to others feel like a huge weight fell off their shoulders - your mind and your soul will be illuminated with lightness of being. Please forgive me!
Everyday life of person, residing in Manhattan, who's fate brought to live in different countries among variety of cultures and languages-at some point the borders were blended, the consciousness was blurred, She gradually became the Person of the Universe...But the absolute freedom of expression is mixed with realization of that IT IS inevitably comes with the BIG price: losing the identity she once had... and NOW she's struggling to understand her own place in this World.
