Spring Fever

Although Armenia accepts March 1st as the first day of Spring, in the west, we were always taught that it was March 21.

This year, Spring (usually symbolized renewal or rebirth) will come in more ways than one this year. It will be the first day after the end of the "State of Emergency". People will embark on the search for truth and justice. Others will go shopping for a new wardrobe. I, on the other hand, will have Good Friday dinner with my kids... and pray for peace.
