On Hanukkah vacation, I flew to Athens, Greece, with my good friend, Naama. At first, I didn't expect anything from this destination; we booked a flight so quickly just to run away from our hectic reality. I was surprised to find out that Athens is full of life, young people, beautiful neighborhoods, history, and many bars and restaurants. The food is not the best, or we didn't have much luck in this area. In Greece they are very strict with covid 19 situations. You have to be vaccinated three times if you want to get into any restaurant or store.
Baking is Fun
For as long as I can remember, I have been around kitchens. I was always next to my mother and grandmother when they were cooking or baking in their kitchens and I used to watch them work their way in there and was fascinated by it. The first time that they let me help them around the kitchen was when I was 8 years old and they let me peel potatoes, and I, instead of peeling the potato, peeled the skin off my thumb.
I have been struggling lately with the calculus of responsibility and guilt. To what extent does nominal responsibility justify the assignment of blame? Just how closely does the responsibility curve hug the curve of accountability?
As a homeroom teacher (mechanech kittah), I often times feel like a magnet of responsibilities. Somehow, discussions of many different functions and obligations haphazardly bounce from whatsapp group to whatsapp group, until they come to a grinding halt somewhere within my purview.
I recently saw the film "Dream Horse", a Sundance production directed by Euros Lyn. The movie is based on a true story, and left me feeling uplifted and optimistic about the potential depth and authenticity of human connection.
