So. i just have to start with a Hebrew thing
גן מאירדנה ברגר
ירח זורח מעל גן מאיר
אני לא מצליחה להרגיש בבית
צריך להרפות את האחיזה
עוד היום מחר יהפוך לאתמול
ראש השנה בחוץ בפנים הכל שבור לי
איך אני רגילה לברוח מאמת פשוטה
יש אהבה בחוץ בפנים חלון נגמר
תקוות ופחדים אתמול ומחר
צריך לב מברזל צריך עור של פיל
ירח גונח מעל איש צעיר
אלוהים שהכעס לא ישתלט על הלב השביר
שלח לו אור מחמם שלח לי אומץ לשיר
ראש השנה בחוץ...
ירח בוטח מעל גן מאיר
ואני בטוחה שהכל עוד יאיר לי
בחרתי בחופש ללכת ממנו שילמתי מחיר
זאת זכותי להמשיך בדרכי
ראש השנה בחוץ...
Rosh hashana away from home.
just a quick post on how was it.
not as hard as i thought.
the part i missed the most is getting ready for the chag.
sitting in my parents house porch, peeling pomegranates listening to galgalatz getting really dirty and take a shower before getting all dressed up....
so it wasn't like that, but i did have a good time.
in the morning i was listening to radio on the computer, after tat elyse and i walked around a bit and went back to her apt to get some rest. and at 5:30 we came to the hillel house to get things ready. making salads, cutting apples. and yeah, i even peeled pomegranates!
we worked hard but it ended up being a really nice dinner and people liked it. i liked it!
in the religion part of it, it's very interesting for me. i'm learning a lot. there are some nice traditions. this morning for example we went for lunch and services. there was the Shofar blowing. it is an interesting one, and Ben, our Rabbi is displaying it in such an easy way of understanding what's going on, and what is the reason to do it. i can relate to that.
also understanding that blowing is a mitzva as well as listening to the shofar... interesting. yeah. or as the announcement before blowing it: תקיעה גדולה.
i do feel weird being far away, not having the option of just pick up a phone on the way home. it might be changed soon.
it's raining out now, feels like washing away last year. we'll see how יפה ושונה will be this one. in the mean time- as i keep celebrating the n(J)ew year, trying to make this couple of days the way i want my year to look like, i wanna wish you all שנה טובה. ans may you wake up every day with a reason to smile!
