Στιγμές in greek stands for “moments”. All those brief indefinite intervals of time that make up our life. Moments of joy, moments of sorrow, moments of happiness, moments of sadness. Moments of reflection or of inspiration. But most importantly those unexpected moments of insights, of new perspectives, of clarity.

The Resurrection of Hope
In Greece, every Holy Saturday at midnight, we kiss
each other to a chorus of fireworks, church bells and chanting priests, spreading the word that “Χριστός Ανέστη” (Christ
has risen).
Faith, Love and Hope have won.
As a non-religious person, I choose to keep a simple
symbolism of the Resurrection of Christ: the victory of light over darkness. It’s
the proof of the splendor and power of morality, strength and love.
Every Holy Saturday for the past few years, at midnight, I tweet my
wish and hope: “Christ has risen. Now it’s our turn.”
