I focus my experiencing and awareness on being
"a   pioneer of  Evolution  in  learning  to  feel":
I let my Body vibrate and my Heart 'womb'

pain, shame, fear, boredom, powerlessness,
so feelings can >heal >guide>fulfill
>evolve,
and ~~~ offer ~~~"goldmines"~~~ to us all!!
"I want you to feel everything, every little thing!"

MY INTENTION and PLAN for TODAY


Know exactly what you want, communicate clearly what you want, then get out of the way, live and play, and let happen what may!
8:00
I desire to better understand, why I attracted the Cohen family, my landlords, into my drama,
and if I should relate to, be open to, be available for Lior
(6) and Amit (3), as I am to my grandkids
I desire to know, if the coincidence of 3 invitations (last week's Inv. to Gil's 75 birthday at Neot Kdumim, yesterday's arrival of the snail-mail invitation to Yael's Bat-Mitzva and my landlady's spontaneous: 'do you want to come with us to the Ceremony of Independence Day of all Arad kindergardens', which I didn't respond to clearly)
means, that I should let go of my rule of not responding to invitations except from my family?
image of the day:
Lior with braids like mine at the age of 6
asks permission to wash my dishes.
Her mother doesn't allow this,
while I - at 6 - was often late for school,
because I had to wash the dishes...



hodayot [thanksgivings] for today

8:20
My Body, my Partner, my God
I give thanks to the neural structure and function of our brain,
the understanding of which affirms "God's" teaching,
that there is
no "predetermination", but actually "post determination".
"...things we remember are "reconstructed" in the brain
at the instant of remembering,

and then reconstructed again at each subsequent remembering.
The old model for remembering was something
like taking a photograph of your uncle's farm house and keeping it.
Today's newer model is more like making a pencil sketch of the scene,
then losing it and re-drawing it later
by trying to put all the lines and marks
in the same place you did the first time.
Imagine this being repeated time and again:
lose the sketch and then reproduce it,
lose it again and reproduce it again.
It would not be surprising for each new sketch
to have the essential elements from the first,
but also to exhibit changes
that accumulated over all the successive replications
. "

I am grate-full,
that Lior seems to teach me to open up to her presence in my life.

10:34
I am grate-full that there was rightaway a sign as to my question above:
In the jacuzzi a woman asked:
"Is it possible to talk again?" (see more below)


School in 1944, in the small village, to which we were evacuated,
started right after my 6th birthday on August 15.
A year later schools were closed for half a year
and our camera was confiscated by the French Occupation Authorities.


But see the "number" of 1 500 000 on May 11

Finetuning to my Present

It was about a year ago, when a woman in the pool,
who overheard my argument with the pool's director,
approached me and begged me to write up a letter
in which the director's behaviour against us elderly people
would be described,
and - with her and other people's signatures -
delivered to the Arad municipality.


I was so stunned by this "appeal" - why to me? -
that I re-acted from my lifelong "Yes-Pattern",
and only when I had time to come to my senses,
I wrote her a letter, which I delivered to the pool's office,
explaining in ever so gentle words,
that at this time of my life I needed to keep away
from any involvment outside my family,
and I - as kindly as possible - asked for her forgiveness.

And now this woman - Alissa Sason (=joy) - addresses me:
"Is it possible to talk again?"

She was the only woman in the jacuzzi,
and when I looked at her - utterly surprised,
she reminded me of our past interaction and added:

"Why so much rage?"
"Rage??? why rage? I explained to you, why ...."


Well, she seemed to have understood me after all,
and now gave me info, that there was a new director now,
that tomorrow on Memorial Day the pool would be closed,
and also from July 15-Sept.15 because of repairs,
only the outside pool would be usable then,
but not for her because of her skin pigmentation disorder,
which would not allow her to be in the sun.

Then we exchanged some information about each other.
What she shared, was so intriguing, that later in the cloakroom,
I approached her, while she dried her hair in the toilet corridor,
asking her if she would answer some questions about her life



Albinistic skin pigmentation in Tanzania
.

I took yet another photo of the entry to our pool, since I did not dare to take Alissa's picture,
afraid she might still not have come to terms with the strong pigmentation of her facial skin.


And this is the story I want to remember:
"I've a daughter who is married to Jochen, a German from Berlin!
They now live in Arad and have two kids and I say, Jochen is better than many a Jew."

Alissa's parents emigrated from Iraq to Burma (Myanmar), where her brother was born.
In 1942 the war reached Burma and the family fled to India,
where Alissa was born - in the same year.
When she was nine, they immigrated to Israel.

"How come, you don't remember, when and why your parents went to Burma?"
"I was not interested to learn about the past, since the present was so horrible.
My grandmother forced into marriage, my mother forced into marriage, and so was I."


2 of Alissa's 5 children were asthmatic, which is what made her move to dry&high Arad in 1983.
Her husband refused to join her:

"There are many asthmatic children in the center of Israel,
so what does it matter, if there are two more."

"But I had money then and could afford to pay 1200$ for a 28 days camp for my sons.
Since Arad proved to be helpful, I stayed, except that one morning I woke up,
and had all these brown stains all over my face.
This was the first time I tried to kill myself,
the second time was because of my financial situation,
and the way I let my husband take advantage of me, when I divorced him 4 years later.


"Did you never find a true partner?"
"I had some chances, and today I regret, that I didn't take one.
But I did everything for my children, I never cared for myself."

Her tone of voice and expression of face conveyed
that she no longer justified such self-sacrifice....
"But now it's too late.
One daughter and one son live with me in Arad, one daughter in Modi'in-Re'ut,
another daughter and my other son live in Beersheva, I have 11 grandkids,
and I hope, things will get better in time.
I have no pension, - only National Security - and still pay 700 NIS mortgage.
I believe, that since I had no worries at that time, I have to pay for it at this time."


Here I stopped her and said:
"Let's continue right at this point, when we'll meet - by chance! - next time."
And I stretched out my hand to emphasize, that from now on I would "talk".

 

 

 

On my way to the morning pool
I again discerned the carpet of golden, dead blossoms
under the Tipuana Tipu Tree ("mikhnaf na'aeh"),
why did I take a picture this time?
And - with the cellphone already focused on "camera"-
I also photographed the carpet of the still blossoming "Monk Hat", kova nazir,
from which, on the way back from the noon-pool, I use to pluck some leaves,
and add them - so rich with vitamin C - to my salad of self-grown sprouts.

After my experience with Alissa Sason in the pool I came home,
looked at the tiny, self-sown, Tipuana in my garden, and thought:
"This tree will symbolize tiny Alissa and my tiny opening up to her."


2013-05-06: it's fascinating to see the difference between my garden then and my garden today.
To mention just one detail: the "Tipuana Tipu" tree, which had grown by itself, died in time.
Now there is the fruit-tree Psidium Cattleanum (tuttit adumah), which I planted last year.

 

 


MERCURY & THE MOON:

"When the sun goes down tonight, step outside and look west.
You'll find Mercury and the Moon beaming side-by-side through the sunset.
Seeing Mercury is rare enough;
seeing Mercury together with an exquisite crescent Moon is out of this world!

21:19 at this moment: Shirim be-kikkar
The Memorial Gathering
on Rabin Square in Tel-Aviv:


More than 22400 people fell in 7 wars.
"And if they would all be here now -
and nobody else -
they would fill this square,
and if each of them had born 3 children
and they were all here,
there would be no space to hold them.
"

The  first  song  was  again  Rachel's ...

I think of my father, killed 65 years ago.
And of Eberhard, my brother,
also killed by a soldier from the USA,
though in times of peace, by his car.
But most of all I think of my children -
they are alive!
and of all the mothers, whose sons are not...
"By chance" this was a photo in a Webshot series which reached me today.
The Wailing Wall in Jerusalem

 

 

 

 

Second Continuation of the70th birthday gathering at Ne'ot Kdumim on Friday, May 2
for Gil Huettenmeister, my German co-student at the Jerusalem University in the year of the Eichmann Trial 1960-61

 


A typical wild landscape in the Land of Israel - with the sage in front contrasting with low trees and shrubs between boulders


In contrast to the view above - this fir is waving with grandeur


And then a lake - not natural, of course. Everythings was re-created in this landscape:

"Neot Kedumim embodies the panorama and power of the landscapes
that helped shape the values of the Bible
and provided a rich vocabulary for expressing them.

"The Bible conveys its ideas not in abstract terms,
but through a clear and vivid record
of long human interaction with the land of Israel."

 

 


Half an hour later I would sit on the stone underneath this sycamore and listen to Hilleke's sad story..

Under another sycamore I discerned one of the many succahs, dispersed discretely and discreetly throughout "the Ancient Oasis" neot kdumim

A group of people was learning about ancient agriculture. It sounded fascinating, but I had "no time" to listen longer.

 

This is one of the most consoling songs I keep singing....
"they who sow in tears shall reap with songs of joy"

I sang it also, when we planted that laurel tree in the desert,
which then was uprooted by the ranger, and then....


About these - not so old - devices for ploughing and threshing, see a German folksong, I love

   

more tomorrow
