Like Riding a Bike, Childhood Never Leaves Us
.
Soon, teaching. I can't believe that it's been 5 years since I last taught the start of Breishit. On the other hand it feels like yesterday that my colleague Rachel Besser (she should live and be well) (I wonder if that bet with Donny is still on) told me that she read this post and that it sounded good, but that it would take longer than the days I allotted. At that time it was a two year curriculum. The plan now is to do it in one year. Looking forward.Oh G-d grant me prayer
I don't mean give me answers
Please just help me ask
Work cut out for us
love and life ahead of us
A man has to hope
All is due to G-d
we pray this all of the time
Feel it now and then
"I win," "No, I win"
These amud wars make me sad
"Rock, paper, scissors..."
Like Billy's last song
this may be my last haiku
"But then again no"

The first haiku here... Well, it's funny. For a while this past week I was struggling, and felt so alone in my struggle. Then, Friday night, I remembered: Oh! I can pray. And I did.
That's beautiful. Thanks so much for writing that.
