blog life-- lech, lecha


a new life
blog life
people met
in blogville

a little boy
with big dreams
to regain health
and walk in Holy Land

like his namesake
Joshua, who
brought the former slaves
to their new home

this little Joshua
G-d willing
will bring
his family
at least for a visit

refuah shleimah! (a complete recovery)
and a nisiya tovah! (a good trip)
parshat "Lech Lecha"
"Come, go, for your own sake"
(Genisis)

G-d told Abram
"Come, go, for your own sake"
and peel away your old identity
your old nationality
your old culture
your old family

just go
and I will show you
once you are on your way
once you're there

you don't need to know now
part of the cleansing
first be a new person
only then
can you arrive
in the promised land
