Burn, Baby, Burn!
"...The Jewish people are called Neirot, lamps.
A lamp comprises a vessel, wick, oil and flame.
But one must kindle the flame - and then it sheds light.
You have a good lamp, but you lack the igniter.
By sharply striking the stone of the animal soul,
a spark of fire leaps out and kindles the G-dly fire."
- This is the topic of our (tear) last farbrengen in seminary.
I will add comments afterward. I must run back to it now, anyhow.
Hasta la vista!

or was it the hayom yom? you getting confused?
yeah. yud sivan. rabbi kaplan started out w the hayom yom. great. ill type up our farby when i get the chance...
"Hasta la vista", with an "h", and separate the article "la" from the noun "vista". Spanish isn't Hebrew, you know...
oy..i seriously remember our last week in lod like it was yesterday, the tears, the laughter, the whole atmosphere..hls forever! :)
aight well, mr all-caught-up-in-politics: i changed it. thanks. i lost all of the spanish i acquired while growing up in houston, now that hebrew seems to have really taken to me. :)
btw - living in israel you learn how to live without the media, without the politics. stay out of it and it cant bite you. besides, theres nothing you can do about it except talk. but KOL HAKAVOD for that rally. Lack of media meant i had to hear about it from a blogspot. lol.
anon ex-ludite - ill have to write it out after it happens. but this whole yr has had its ups and downs with the school, the whole situation. i can safely say we are excited to leave school, but at the same time we know weve gained a heck of a lot and we love each other to pieces...
