Kosovo. Freedom. Come. Dance.



Stumbled across spontaneous celebrations of the declaration of independence of the Republic of Kosovo in Berlin today. While standing amidst the cheering crowd, I overheard an American tourist asking a man hoisting a flag asking what was going here. English clearly not being his first language, he gave her the best possible, most beautiful answer: "Kosovo. Freedom. Come. Dance." and proceeded to take her hand and drag her into the exultant, dancing crowd.
Politics can be so heart-warming sometimes. Albeit rarely.
Let's hope Kosovo's future is as peaceful as today's celebrations have been.
:D
