For those who aren’t familiar, I created a list of 28 things to do in my 28th year before I turn 28. Some of them are one time things, others daily, all of them related to me. It’s a good thing I didn’t make something about blogging often one of the things on my list. There’s […] Read More

I created this list because I felt my life was out of control and I wanted to set guidelines to balance it. I intended on taking everything one step at a time and doing things in increments. That’s not my natural style and I’ve recently reached the point where I realized it’s a little out […] Read More

I love Passover. I love the seder, reading the hagaddah, being with family and friends, etc. Along with Tu B’Shvat it’s my favorite Jewish holiday. One thing I’ll never understand about it though is the recitation of “L’Shana Ha’ba B’Yerushalayim/Next year in Jerusalem”. Most people who say it, don’t seem to actually mean it or […] Read More

There once was a girl named Rose. When she was little she was talkative and adventurous. She relied on no one and found it hard to forge long-lasting relationships. By the time she got to high-school she became quiet and reserved, and confided in few. She would get lost in the fantasy world of TV […] Read More

The past two weeks have been a lot more busy than intended. I haven’t been able to blog but I’ve been making progress with the goals. For the first Shabbat in non-anglo communities, I decided to go to my relatives just outside of Jerusalem in Kfar Etzyon in Gush Etzyon. Since making aliyah I go […] Read More

When I created the 28 list it was during a time when I was evaluating everything about myself. It was a time when I was assessing where I was in life, how I got there, and what I wanted. The list is kind of a guide for that. Included on it are several things I […] Read More

This past Shabbat Melissa and I had the privilege of hosting our married friends (A and Y) who are visiting Israel for a few weeks. A and I were talking about the Kotel and she asked me what I do there when I go. Such a great question. This is generally what I do at the […] Read More
