I thoroughly enjoyed this post, partly because although your specific memories are quite different than mine, their is a common "religious" thread that weaves its way through both.<br /><br />I don't have time now to elaborate, but I'm coming back. I read a couple of other posts, too. Fascinating both because of the subject matter but because of you way with words - you're an excellent writer.<br /><br />It appears you are well and in the "prime" of your life!<br /><br />Best wishes!Lowellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15305748075301453010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3988299562536912229.post-11309109917042449522012-01-07T01:00:25.210-08:002012-01-07T01:00:25.210-08:00I've read through this post twice tonight, and...I've read through this post twice tonight, and I also spent a long time looking at your pictures, especially that Bar Mitzvah picture. Right now I'm too much in awe of your courage and honesty to come up with a halfway intelligent comment. I just want to say I wish I could reach through this computer screen and give you a piece of challah right now! You were not born into a faith that demands the sacrifice of your rationality, except in its most extreme and dogmatic manifestations. I think even Christopher Hitchens would agree (albeit grudgingly).Rakshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280365011937595321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3988299562536912229.post-83257044834835808982012-01-06T20:38:03.637-08:002012-01-06T20:38:03.637-08:00You know how much I like this post.

I hope it results in achieving peace in your life/mind -- whatever. Personal acceptance and peace are for more important in my mind than any of the other things.Sylvia Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05484577678585907669noreply@blogger.com
