Good old days


My grandparents used to moan about the "good old days" that now belong to the past.
My parents always talk about the "good old days" when thinks were different.

I don't mind about the good old days. In fact, I love the good new days. I love what we have now. I love the web. I love the fact that you are free to talk, search, have fun, communicate as you please, however you please and as long as you please.
I love the fact that it brings all of us closer together.

And when I myself moan about the "good old days" it is only for experiences that have united some of us forever. Like the Athens Olympics.

I love the web. I love my friend Dimitris Zenetos who loves technology and who knows how to bring all of us closer together again. He used to do that when he was sat next to us, in an open floor space at the Olympic Committe Headquarters. But then, he was physically there. Now he is not. He lives in the UK and most of us - the old gang - live in Greece. But he is still around, still with us and still surprises us every now and then.

Two days ago, a video about our experiences at the Athens Olympics was broadcasted on YouTube. Today, there are more than 240 views.

Thank you, Dimitri mas, for being there. Thank you for helping us remember the "good old days".

Ah the good old days - beautiful memories, beautiful moments spent with people you love. These are the moments we live for, the moments we cherish and that make up the fabric of our lives. My favorite writer, F Scott Fitzgerald, once wrote how strange it is that sometimes, for what seems like an endless period of time, nothing happens, we seem to stagnate and stand still... and then all of a sudden life comes crowding into a single hour. Everything happsn then, things you least expect, with people you hardly know - and these moments, in that single hour, become the stuff that dreams are made of.
So enjoy those good old days, those precious memories, but never forget that more good old days are just waiting around the corner to be experienced. Life is a beautiful place. Anna-Maria
