Thessaloniki is a city with fine history and wild time full of life and energy.

Past the tower was the Turks to prison, where they used killed many revolutionaries and enemies of the Ottoman Empire, she was tagged Bloody Tower by the end of the 19th century. Then the tower is painted white and has since called it the White Tower. Today is it is the Byzantine Museum. Next to it is an awesome Greek bar where we have made our midday meal and glass of wine from Thessaloniki to the Church of St. Demetrius stoned. St. Demetrius -The largest Orthodox church in Thessaloniki is the patron saint of the City. In the Church are the residue of most saints.

Saint Demetrius was born in Thessaloniki in the after second century. His father was mayor of the town and quietly believed in Christ. Though the youthful man killed his parents, Emperor Maximilian appointed him a high army posts with the object of persecution Christians. Growing up in the Christian faith Dimitar no such intentions and began directly to glorify Jesus Christ to promote and began to propagate of Christianity. Once that is understood, asked Emperor Maximilian of Dimitry to leave behind their faith, but he refused, was thrown into prison and latterly stabbed with a spear in the 306 years. Though Emperor Constantine stop murder against the Christians, the spot where he killed Demetrius is a small church built in 413 years and later determined to be grateful for your healing lay in the little church bigger temple to build. The relics were brought in a silver coffin of St. on the display and in the small church, and according to tale, there flowed perfumed oil. For that reason, the Church of St. Dimitar is named on Dimitar Mirotochivi. Still held relics of St. Demetrios in the Basilica, called after his name, where the day of his death in Thessaloniki pilgrims from around the world and particularly from the Balkans flow.

Fancy a QUICK poem? ?

I guess it's not really a poem, I just felt like writing. I'm always writing.
Can you tell me what you think? please.
It's about rape, but I feel the reader may interpret it as they wish
The stream being me and gravity being him.

When a droplet of water falls, it stands together. Using all it's strength to prevent the beautiful transparent sphere from crumbling, beneath the overwhelming stare of gravity watching closely over its shoulder. Waiting for the satisfaction of a puddle, a shapeless waste, which will too soon evaporate. Gravity is blind, for the droplet was never a droplet, but a cleverly disguised stream. A promenading stream.

that is very very good.
u'r a very talented person.
hope u'll continue writing! ^.^
