What do you love most about being Armenian?
I expect a lot of posts on this one....I'm HOPING for a lot of posts on this one.
If I had to say, and, I can't say much about this subject, which is one of the reasons I am asking, it's because "we" (if I may use that word) are so exclusive. That is to say, so very few people know who the Armenians are (I always judge the level of ignorance/worldliness on that fact) that I feel privelidged to be part of this special group. We've done so much for the world and nobody knows. AND, there are so many Italians and English and Mexicans and Irish and Germans and Chinese in the world that, while it's great to be part of some culture that big, at some point, doesn't it begin to lose meaning? Armenians really don't have that oportunity to forget who they are and from where they came and what has happened within the last 100 years especially. ...But, I'm looking for your answers, because you know more about this than I do and I'm always eager to hear more.
