Dear Friends,
today was a difficult day for us - Greeks.That's why my content won't be the happy one I had planned to post.
*
A young, 15 years old boy was killed by a policeman when he appeared in the middle of gunfights between the police and the anarchists who were distroying several shops around Athens.
Alexis, 15 years oldThat was the first checker of the domino. Students around Greece refused to go to their schools and demostrated for the murder. Then anarchists took the occasion to distroy more buildings. The political parties demostrated too against the goverment's policy and the police's harshness.
I watch the news and I can't believe my eyes! So anger from everybody...
I feel pity for the boy and his parents...
I feel sad for the policeman - murderer- who has three chilren...
I feel sorry for the owners of the shops who waited for Christmas to work under this difficult economic crisis...

Chaos...! My heart is bleeding...

Very good post sis! Very thoughtful of you.
I´m sorry. Violence is anywhere.
Sad our violent World.
I'm so sorry! Terrible. It's on our news so I knew it was happening but it is still shocking!
How very sad. I can understand why it would not be possible to post about something cheerful today.
Very sad news indeed especially in time for christmas. My prayers are with you.
How very sad for everyone involved. Such a tragedy.
Take care!
I read about this earlier and saw the sad pictures! I'm so very sorry and will hold good thoughts for you and your country at this time. What a sad and violent world we live in -- even harder to bear at this time of year when it is supposed to be love that we celebrate, not hate. Thank you for the info.
I saw this piece of news on tv and it truly saddened me. I am sorry this happened and sorry it happened in your country...
Oh your World is in sadness for sure today I am so sorryn
I'm sorry to hear of this.
This has been all over our news. It is such a terrible waste, which we have also seen too much of in the UK.
Such a sad indictement of our times.
I read about the riots in the newspaper, but it's much different to actually be there. I'm sorry that this is casting a shadow on your world.
So sad that there has to be so much violence in all of our worlds. Very passionate post
I heard the news and I thought of you and Antigoni and how this must be affecting you all. I am so very sorry that this has happened. I feel sorrow for the young boy, and for his family who has to deal with his death, for everyone involved, my heartfelt condolences for the people of Greece.
I'm so sorry for you, this is all over in our news too. Hope the violence will end before Christmas. Take care!
you've phrased it very well marina - to loyia einai perita...
I'm so sorry, we've been watching the news from Greece, and I've been thinking of you! So unnecessary loss of a young life!
That's so sad. I hope it'll get resolved soon and I hope cooler heads and kinder hearts will prevail.
I do hope that there soon will be peace in Athens and the rest of your beautiful country. It's sad that this all happened and especially at this time of Christmas. I noticed that you are Antigoni's sister. How wonderful! You're both very lovely girls!
I have been watching the news clips and thinking about the sadness and chaos that everyone has to endure. Our prayers go out!
that is so sad. i am one with you in praying that violence should end.
πραγματικά ΧΑΟΣ.
I do not watch the news and did not realize...I am so sorry for the turmoil around you.
Dear Marina,
first of all thank you so very much for your lovely Christmas wishes and the nice present you sent me! I really appreciate this very much!
I am also very sad to see all these shocking pictures from Greece. I am so sorry for you! Take care!
