Deeper Connections: June 2010
http://deeperconnections.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 27, 2010. אין לי מילים - I have no words. I just returned to Jerusalem from a weekend in Tzfat. My friend and I spent some time speaking about how there were simply no words to describe the experience of being there. Any attempt to put the time into words would never do it justice. I mean, one could try; if an article had. My friend's look of surprise when I walked onto Livnot's campus, wishing her "שבת שלום, לא בפלפון, לא בסקאיף." (Shabbat Shalom, not on a cell phone, not on Skype.). Thank ...

Deeper Connections: July 2010
http://deeperconnections.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 18, 2010. Not sure if I have the words. But I'll try. In thinking back through orientation last night, I forgot to try and convey a beautiful experience I'd just had. A group of students got together for havdallah, the ceremony separating Shabbat from the rest of the week. Still being a bit overwhelmed and overstimulated by so much group time, I chose to go somewhere else instead. Saturday, July 17, 2010. Walking on a Tightrope. Halevi's book At the Entrance to the Garden of Eden. Books I re...

Deeper Connections: May 2010
http://deeperconnections.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 28, 2010. But just a few. I want to wait until I can process my RAW files in Photoshop. For now, a few jpgs. You can all guess what this says. Buenos Aires Couchsurfing host #1; in-home haircut mate. This, and the following few, are from the cemetery in a neighborhood called Recoleta (Buenos Aires). Girl in the monastery adjacent to the cemetery. One of many huge mausoleums. Had to throw in at least one self-portrait! More to come when I get back to New York. Tuesday, May 25, 2010. The city i...

Deeper Connections: I love Jerusalem on Saturday mornings...
http://deeperconnections.blogspot.com/2010/08/i-love-jerusalem-on-saturday-mornings.html
Sunday, August 22, 2010. I love Jerusalem on Saturday mornings. There's an intense quiet, a pervading sense of calm. Lots of birds. (Dad: "Good birds."). I wake up to the loud crashes of construction across the street. Bang. Bang BANG. Nothing compares to Saturday mornings here. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Deeper Connections: What a difference a year makes...
http://deeperconnections.blogspot.com/2010/12/what-difference-year-makes.html
Friday, December 3, 2010. What a difference a year makes. A few days later, a group of friends, some quite old and others deceptively new, gathered at the home of my college advisor (and friend) to celebrate together, eat, talk, make music. It was one of the most special birthday celebrations for me; I carry a history of birthdays and special events where people jumped ship last minute leaving me quite alone. I wasn't alone last year. Be possible. A year. I woke up early today and watched my birthday sun...

Deeper Connections: March 2010
http://deeperconnections.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 4, 2010. It's been a while since I've seen you. So, how have you been? But so many things fell into place over the summer and in the beginning of the fall - - personally, professionally, spiritually. The right time feels like now, not a few years from now. I took my Hebrew exam yesterday, and I feel quite confident about how I did, especially considering that I couldn't even read. It would be. amazing. beyond words. The Rav, Kol Dodi Dofek.

Friday, August 27, 2010. A load of updates. I've been focusing on Ulpan and seeing friends here (so many of my Israeli friends are leaving town. sigh.) that weeks have passed since any substantial update to the blog. Sorry folks (I mean CAMERON). So, in no particular order:. It might be what forces my spoken Hebrew to catch up to reading and comprehension. Maybe) an hour later. Shockers for Americans: 1) the surgery was done without any sort of sedative, only local anesthetic; 2) the dentist called m...

Deeper Connections: August 2009
http://deeperconnections.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 20, 2009. That gets us to today. Tel Aviv. I wasn't too excited to come back here, but it's been lovely. I've gotten to catch up with some friends and spend time with new chevre. Nothing to complain about there! Tomorrow I will head to Modi'in to spend shabbat with my friend Shira, a bat sherut from Livnot, and her family. From there? The way of Jerusalem is a way of exaltation. She is so much more than what you see." Abraham Joshua Heschel. Tuesday, August 11, 2009. Up on the Roof.
