This picture was taken in Venice by the entrance of the Ghetto three summers ago, during one of the many brief summer showers.
As well I am adding a link to a short story that caught my interest some time back, and have since reread.
The Necklace . . . tell me what you think of it.
A Good Shabbos

We did that story in 7th and 8th and 9th grades...don't ask why so much. I was always of the opinion that she should have told her friend, and that little bit of dishonesty is what ruined her.
I think the problem started before that -had she been happy with her life -which wasn't all too bad- she wouldn't have had the problem of choosing between truth and falsehood.
True. Aizehu ashir? Hasameach b'chelko. Did you ever read 'The Dinner Party'? I think if she had been more like the woman in that story, it might have ended a lot differently. (Oh, sheesh, I'm encouraging a yiddishe neshama to read shtus.)
