I am learning (now, after all of these years) that I was so busy trying to be understood that I didn't learn how to understand. I didn't learn HOW to "get it". I got bits and pieces, sure, but I didn't get IT. I am finally seeking to learn how...and I'm gaining on it, yes, I am! Thank you for helping me on my journey. <BR/><BR/>We all have atrocities (perceived or real) that we battle through. Some are more real than others, certainly - your Tante Fela knows. Thank her from ME, would you? Because she has helped me today as well. <BR/><BR/>Feel peace and keep writing! :)porcini66https://www.blogger.com/profile/00547909036887434734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27072566.post-37873445952099942612008-06-26T04:19:00.000-05:002008-06-26T04:19:00.000-05:00Nice Blog.Thanks.http://pagerankings.blogspot.comNice Blog.Thanks.<BR/>http://pagerankings.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27072566.post-42057135691623828022008-06-03T16:02:00.000-05:002008-06-03T16:02:00.000-05:00Oh no.

My father was teasing the orthodox Rabbi and made some kind of comment about the behavior of the kids in an orthodox shul.<BR/><BR/>My Father's friend responded by saying, "When you go to someone else's house, you are always on your best behavior. When you are with family, you can act like yourself".<BR/><BR/>My Dad loved the comment and knew his orthodox colleague had gotten the best of him. For years, he used to quote that line, even to his congregants.The Adjunct Professorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06997451247912489046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27072566.post-29305141727017531682008-06-02T15:48:00.000-05:002008-06-02T15:48:00.000-05:00Cholent and I have a love/hate relationship.
