Rocking Sunday

Remember my post of the last Sunday? It was so dull and boring. Thank G-d, this Sunday came out different. I had a morning chavruta with Leah and then we all had a lesson of the jewish history with Elisheva. It was so interesting, we discussed about 'Kamtza and Bar Kamtza' issue. You know my opinion over this stuff - I don't believe in this 'BE FRUM' thing. It does not matter whether you're religious or not - as long as you forget to treat people nice.

Yesterday rabbi Rose mentioned that when you speak about Torah with women, you need to focus on different things while speaking with men you should take different approach. I did not really understand that, but today when we started discussion on Elisheva's lesson, I really saw the difference between men and us :lol: (well, it's taken quite long, Soph!) What kind of difference? Women obey rules easier, it is written? Ok, than we do according them. And I like men ;) I like learning, discovering new things and discussing, it is so refreshing and interesting rather than reading and writing it down to pass an exam. So, I had a nice day, Baruch Hashem. In the evening I went out with the girls to the Bundestag, we went inside, saw the night city view, walked here and there, and got home.

Tomorrow's new day, Scarlett ;)

My new haircut

[By the way, my new haircut is weird - absolutely not my style. Well, I'm still thankful, it's a challenge, I should've seen myself as a woman-to-be, shouldn't I? :D]

Berlin - as I see it

Brandenburg Gate

Bundestag

Only one of him is alive soldier

Today I went to the upper east side of Berlin, where are Reichstag, German Parliament and other historic buildings. When I was standing there on Pariser Platz, I felt sudden heartbeat, I looked at people who were walking, smiling, talking, taking pictures... there was time 60 years ago when this place was bombed, millions of people got killed. I've never felt something like that before. May be it's because that Germany has been dominant country of the modern history. Germany had begun both world wars. It is a country which makes you think about many things - even about your personality, who you are, what you are and where are you going to end up, if you know what I mean.

Even though I did not like Berlin very much at the beginning, now I can see that it was meant to be for me to come here and find my own self. Berlin is quite a city - clean and cold. So I hope I'll be able to clean my soul and never become cold, you know. Life is full of challenges and they make me better, stronger and wiser for sure.

I hope you all try to find something in places where you live which will motivate you for doing and being good.
