People from My Past: My Grand-grand-mother Gina



My grand-grand mother Gina was born in 1889.

She was already 80 years-old, when I was born.

I remember she had a beautiful round face, a nice smile and a strong personality, hidden under a mild and childish attitude in life.

She had a big kitchen, with a huge fireplace and everything she cooked, always smelled of ash.

Cruel are the Times



.... I dare not speak much further,
But cruel are the times, when we are traitors
And do not know ourselves; when we hold rumour
From what we fear, yet know not what we fear,
But float upon a wild and violent sea,
Each way and none...

"Macbeth", William Shakespeare
4.2
