My mood is changing, I feel the time to get going is slowly approaching, however I did consider staying here even longer. Surprising, I felt here so good, and now this lonely feeling happens, which is a sign - I guess-to go...
I wrote that the Orthodox religion is dominating here. The Orthodox church was engaged in supporting the Georgian Nationality, but also the historical luggage has its weight. Most of the orthodox bishops where KGB agents here, and there is a dysharmony between the not to wealthy society (despite the big progress which happend in the past years, there are still many beggars, there is significant poverty here) and the orthodox priests. By the way I found out, that according to them, the coming of Jesus is going to happen during the lifetime of the Georgian patriarch Elijah (an old guy, former KGB agent as well). Not far away from the Russian border there is a church being built, where Jesus while have his Supper (in Georgian of course). The Final Judgement is of course also going to be in Georgian, I think it's time to take up learning this language.
