Blogging Break


 I'm taking a break from blogging,  for two major reasons :

a.   I find it hard to concentrate on chosen topics, while there's war and tragedy going on in my Middle Eastern  area.

b.   The High  Holy Days season (New Year,  The Day of Atonement , Sukkot...) starts on the  2nd of October.  I have to think of ways to welcome these  holy days, in spite of the messy situation, and the expected escalation of conflicts in the region.

Hoping, and praying to God  for better times.
Wishing you all, the very best!

Duta. .

  1. If you are in Australia during the High Holy Days, please eat dinner with us :) The grandchildren are noisy, but they give our lives meaning in the present generation, and hope for the future.

  11. My dear friend, I have continued to pray for you and the people of Israel. I can certainly understand why it would be difficult to concentrate with all that is going on around you. Stay safe...and continue to trust in God during these upcoming Holy Days.

  19. Hoping you are able to come back after the High Holy Days to find things have improved and you can resume blogging. We'll miss you. It has to be so difficult living in all that uncertainty and knowing how little control the average resident has over what is happening. I wish you only the best.
