Our Passover Seder was a night of Freedom and Singing.  It reinforced my awareness of the constant presence of The Holy Blessed One.
The next day we went up north, along with so many other people looking for a nice few days of vacation.  And we found just that at a little desert spring Ein Succot - where we took our first dip.  It was really nice to jump in the cool water and dry off in the sun eating matza brai and coffee.  This was Eden's first time at any body of water bigger than our bathtub.  She was a little shocked and scared, but after a few minutes of sitting in the mud on the edge of the water she was having a great time; still not ready to get in, but then again she's only 1.
Just like in the song from Beauty and the Beast "We don't like what we don't understand, infact it scares us"

At a beach on the Sea of Galilee a group of high schooler's brought a huge speaker and started blasting music.  We left immediately.

It was too much for me - too much traffic, too much pushing, too crowded.

I look for calm surroundings.  At work, at home, on the road, as well as with friends - internally as well.

I want this to be my Freedom.
