Mikhail Dmitrievich,
Congratulation to you too on Victory day. It was nice that you had an entry in your Twitter account congratulating veterans. Everyone of us, former Soviet Union people, had a part in it. Everyone was effected and carried the burden of survival in every human ways; economically, physically and emotionally. I'm still imotional about the history and the people who carried it on their shoulders. The ones never came back and still don't have names I'll sing a song in solitude in a peaceful place in Central Park in New York City.
There is a walk called "literary walk" in there, I love it. The other one called "writers ally." That's another of my favorite spots. I'll be playing war time music from youtube on my smartphone all day to join the mood. Maybe I'll stop by and put a candle in a church and pray for their souls.
Among my favorites songs are;
"semnadtzat mgnaveniy vesni," " c chevo nachinayetza rodina,""lebedi," "na bezimyannoy visote" etc. there is no end, there are so many of them and they're all amazing. I love Dmitri Khvarastovsky's voice.
His "Maya Moskva" gives me chills.
I'd love to see you out there hugging and kissing and giving flowers to veterans and putting it on video to show that you care. If you did do it, but didn't show it, thank you. Please do it for us who are far away. I wish I'd be there to do that. It looked nice weather in Moscow, people were wearing light jackets. It was beautiful. I love Moscow, I missed it so much.
If you're there, enjoy it, let us know what you're up to.
Best regards.
