For me, it’s a time to think about Hungarians whose lives were lived in the shadow of war, fascism, communism or poverty, and I am once again grateful to have grown up in peace, freedom and prosperity.

There's an old Hot Chocolate song called 'It Started with a Kiss.' Well in my case, it started with a message - several actually, courtesy of XpatLoop's free online singles service.
