An Arab shepherd is searching for his goat on Mount Zion And on the opposite hill I am searching for my little boy. An Arab shepherd and a Jewish father Both in their temporary failure. Our two voices met above The Sultan's Pool in the valley between us. Neither of us wants the boy or the goat To get caught in the wheels Of the "Had Gadya" machine. Afterward we found them among the bushes, And our voices came back inside us Laughing and crying. Searching for a goat or for a child has always been The beginning of a new religion in these mountains.
"Do what makes you happiest...." as this came into mind just awhile ago. ......so after what I wrote what I wrote so far today on this thread...Stan's nephew called to invite us to their barbecue tomorrow. I already told the neighbors yes, when they came over with the wind chimes 4 weeks ago or so now...I knew it was a a yearly thing with the neighbors anyway....so I have been planning for it all along. When Stan comes home, I am going to tell him to go to his nephew's to see his brother and relatives.......and whenever he comes home....the neighbors will still be going. Stan is happier with his family and I am happier here......so why should he not go? I hope he does. but he will say no, if I am not going..........as he always does about everything....but I want him to go and have fun there.

Americans want beauties, not me. I'm not the Parisian bombshell they expected. Can you see me as a chorus girl? Where's my feather up the ass? They think I'm sad, they're dumb. I don't connect to them.
“The streets were empty, the courtyards and gardens as if dead. In the Turkish houses depression and confusion reigned, in the Christian houses caution and distrust. But everywhere and for everyone there was fear. The entering Austrians feared an ambush. The Turks feared the Austrians. The Serbs feared both Austrians and Turks. The Jews feared everything and everyone since, especially in times of war, everyone was stronger than they.” Just change a few words, and still relevant
