One last time

Last Shabbes in Jerusalem. Susan and Yosef very generously invited me to ask whomever I wanted over for dinner, with them handling all the hosting details for however big a crowd. It was such a love-fest, and my friends said such beautiful things about why they liked me, which was incredibly moving. We stayed up long past midnight singing everything from “Hashkiveinu” to “Seasons of Love” and having deep conversations. We are going to be dear friends for life. This has been the best of years.
