I went to the Ohel today.
While standing in the new section that connects the "house" to the "tent," I bumped into someone I knew.
Five years ago, when this blog was born, he was one of the major players in the drama that was the Land of the Warrior Saws.
Today, when we met again, he needed to be reminded of my name and from where he knew me.
Five years.
What was an all-consuming drama, an epoch so great in my life, that I thought I would never find surpassed . . . was gone.
That year in Poland was barely remembered by this man . . . and in truth, only half recalled by myself.
Time ebbs and winds . . .
Now I stand on the eve of 5771.
Last year I married, this year I had a son. Next year . . .
Next year I'll turn 26 - closer to the age of 30 than the age of 20 - the age I started this blog.
Despite having a cache of 5 blog posts ready to post . . . I haven't posted anything here in two weeks.
and yet it turns.
G-d willing there will be many good things this year - to blog about, to share with friends, and to farbrengen.
Dear reader . . . with all of my heart and soul . . . I wish you a good sweet year.

Shana Tovah- only good things in the year to come.
Your post sounds a bit depressing but I don't think there's anything to worry about. It's life and it constantly goes forward and we move together with it. It's a New Year and new opportunities. Enjoy them!
And to you also.
