Urania Gazelli: " I would like to see this small little seed that I've "planted" one year ago to grow and become a huge healthy "tree" - photo by Kosmas Koumianos
BPP: Who are
you? And who you really are?
Urania Gazelli: "I'm just a girl who is looking for love, real love,
ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love"
Yes, this is exactly who I am. BUT I'm also a girl trying to
become a woman, a business woman, fighting evey day to this non color world to
achieve my goals, to make true the dreams I have at night!
I am a girl who is screaming to others not to give up! Trying
to remember to others what is Greece and what Greeks are capable of!
I'm just a girl who is looking for hope, for love, for
colors, for life!! Because you can't live without these!!!
BPP: If you could say
something important to others who were listening, what would you tell them?
Urania Gazelli: Very common but So
true and important... Never stop dreaming. It costs nothing but it can bring
you everything, as long as you start doing your dreams real. You will feel
alive and ready to conquer the world!!
BPP: What is your true dream, the one that keeps you up at night and if one day it were to come true you would feel peace and calmness in your heart?
Urania Gazelli: Hmm.. True Big dream.. my friends say that I'm a dreamer.. I
would like to see this small little seed that I've "planted" one year
ago to grow and become a huge healthy "tree". This day will be very
long, I can feel it.. Maybe years might pass for this day to come! But I have
faith and I believe that this dream will come true and when I will be old enough
I might get some peace and calmness in my heart, most probably surrounded by my
grandchildrens!
BPP: How is life
currently for the people in your country and what would you wish for them and
for the planet at large?
Urania Gazelli: As time goes by the problem is getting bigger and bigger.
You can feel it in your everyday life. We are leaving in a grey world although
our country is blessed with all the sun we have, but that is not enough for the
people, for us. We are a generation where we've learned to have everything!
Good life, good house, great car, amazing work, good money-a lot of money-!!
And now all these gradually are taking away from us. It's a very hard and
diificult time for our country and it will take years for our country to
recover from this crisis that we are leaving.
I wish for my country and for all of us to find strength
above all to overcome all the obstacles that will come because now it's the
beginning of all of it. It's easy to say but hard to do so, but as I mentioned
before Greece is a great country with a history like no other and we know from
history what Greeks are capable of and that in very difficult times we've made
it. So, let's be supportive with each other and help each other. Let's start
sharing ideas and work together with strategy and passion. Only with this way
we will find our way!
Worldwide we have to be like that. People have to remember
how to respect, love and share with each other. They have to do the same with
nature and with animals. We have to stop looking at ourselves.. We have to
become an unbroken chain, hold each others hands and not let go. one word is my
wish L.O.V.E.
BPP: If you had a
chance to be a child again would you choose the same life?
Urania Gazelli: Yes, I would live my present life again. I would love to fix
all the "mistakes", but if I did change even one thing, then I would
not be the person that I am today. I love my mistakes and I have no regrets for
anything because they are part of my life.
BPP: What was the exact moment that you realized
what you wanted to do with your life?
How did you feel at this very moment?
Urania Gazelli: The moment where I was standing out of a huge building in
Paris and in rue Cambon and realizing that THIS IS IT!!! I am alone in a
foreing country, without knowing anyone and I'm carrying all these heavy boxes
and waiting in the rain for a couple of hours, for a huge iron door to open and
enter to an unknown world to me but a world which was going to be mine!!! So
scared but so happy!! So confident, so powerful, I was feeling like I wanted to
take over all the world! Like all the world was mine!!!
Till that moment I wasn't aware what I was doing exactly or
what I really wanted to do with my life, because all these years I was under a
transparent protective cover, my family! There I realized that my dream and all
the hard work I did, were becoming true! There it was me and myself...and it
was the best moment of my life!!!!
BPP: Would you like
to tell us something we didn’t ask until now?
Urania Gazelli: What I wanted to be when I grew up: a farmer :)
