Family
After 34 years of marriage, three kids so far apart in ages they almost belong to different generations, nine homes in six cities, and five household moves across continents, I can safely say my nuclear family is the center of my world. All of my good days are the result of their love and support, and I've been working hard to do the same for them. And yet, I feel very fortunate to have also been able over the years to make connections to people in Greece, the United States, and Qatar who I would call my "brothers and sisters" -- people who have enriched my life in many ways and I am grateful for their friendship.
