{:en} Dear Merve; “Where do you get your inspiration?” Yes, yes, I will finally be explaining this. I am sure most of us think about their characters as several people, or I am the only one… Not sure never talked about this with anyone, well I did but only to eliminate the possibility of multiple personality disorder. I can assure you I don’t have that. Over the years, pretty much in every interview, I have been asking “Where do you get your inspiration?” Or “What inspires you?” The answer is “I DON’T KNOW”.

{:en} This time my article is about surprises in life and unexpected friendships. It all started with a post on Facebook I saw in a migrant women's group. A young bride-to-be wrote that she would have a marriage ceremony in Puerto Rico and that her family could not attend the wedding due to visa problems.

The rapid transformation the world has undergone in recent years has made it even more evident how special the era we—Generation X—lived through truly was. In fact, we can say those last ten years, from the 90s into the early 2000s, were the final stretch before everything started to go wrong.
