From childhood, I did not take the beauty of the film with the Great Sarah with a great impression. The corpses float chloroform, I was outraged by the neglect of people, even if inanimate. Parents said - you will bring candidate, you can do what you want.
So then I did what I wanted. Probably, then they sorry much about their words, because the first thing I pierced my hole in my ear, put on huge pants-hares and then fashionable “cosmic” plastic glasses. When in this form appeared before his parents, silence hung. But this did not end.

There I was unexpectedly invited to a sewing company, worked like a damned one. And then the crisis of Go struck and all the money accumulated disappeared overnight. Then the wife said: “Igor, but wouldn’t we start my job? I was happy because I finally did what I love and received money for it.

And in general, what is a family in your life? Dadiani: Mom is also blue blood - from the old Polish family of Pototsky. She was my friend, the best and only in the whole world. Dad was a very tough man, with him I never had a close relationship. Although he was an intellectual, he played excellently on the piano, he had a European education. Before the revolution, Papa spent several years in Paris.
I grew up a beloved child in the family. Not spoiled, namely to loved ones. You know, permissiveness and freedom are two big differences. I always had my own point of view, and my parents heard me. This is very important when you say and hear you. Another thing is that my opinion could not be accepted, but they always explained why no. When I became aware of the stories of both families - Dadiani and Pototsky, it became clear why it was simply impossible for me to commit this or that misconduct - “Not a disgrace surname!
In a word, having learned the story of the family, I understood everything in my life.
