I’m not suggesting this as a general rule, but there definitely are times when seeing something for yourself is more than ‘a good thing.’ We all (maybe I’m being generous about ‘all’) have some vague notion about ‘the pyramids along the Nile’ and the statues and structures – now in disrepair – in Ancient Greece. But when you get to see the temple at Abu Simbel or the buildings on the Acropolis up close and personal, it leaves an impression, something you don’t forget so easily – as in, this is the real deal, not just an image on Wikipedia.

On the Road to Azariya
A pointed question from my brother
It wasn’t stated as a challenge or a rebuke, more as an assumption, something similar to, Have you had a chance yet to check out the new sushi joint in the mall? – because it would be only a matter of time before we, with chopsticks aloft, were stuffing sashimi into our mouths.My brother was simply asking me if I had participated in any of the demonstrations here in The Land against the so-called ‘judicial reforms.’ I know you. Sooner or later, Fred, you WILL show up because that’s who you are. You were never one to watch from the sidelines.
