  1. Builder

    For Nelson (May 16, 1944-July 13, 2005)

    If I would have my life to live over again,
    I would find an old stone wall in disrepair
    and I would spend my days seeking the tumbled
    down stones hidden in the grass.

    By day I would rebuild the wall. At night I
    would lie in its lee. I would not be afraid
    of the snakes and rodents disturbed from
    their dark places in the cracks between the
    stones where they sleep.

    And when my life came to an end and the wall
    was as yet unfinished, I would not moan. I
    would lay myself down against the rocks and
    let my body fade away into a place of rest in
    the cracks between the stones.

  16. Hebrew is part of the life you're still building.

    That moment when Hebrew suddenly makes sense, in Israel, in scripture, with family, at a place that matters to you. That's not a small thing.

    The people who get there aren't the ones who waited for the right time.

    They're the ones who started anyway with the right teacher, and the willingness to just show up.

    That's it.

    No shortcuts, no magic.

    Well, there is magic, it's the life it opens up for you 💙🇮🇱
