Because we gave birth to Democracy? Because Socrates, Plato and Aristotle were Greek? Because we never visit others empty handed? Because we dance when we are sad? Because 40% of Oxford dictionary is made up with Greek words?
My Greek relatives were always the FUN ones! Never any guilt trips, always open arms and a hug. Always asking, ‘what would you like to do?’ when I arrived. I only have happy memories of the Greeks.
the best thing about being a real greek is that we still got morality, ethics, respect and dignity and most important “filotimo” so, we know how to use money in a way that money cant use us!
