| Introduction | As stated in my first entry, I am intending to post thoughts about the weekly Torah portion starting with B'Reishit/ Genesis of 2007/5768. I will probably be posting about Shabbat services from time to time, as moving as they often are. As of right now, the beginning of October 2007, I am living in Dallas, TX. I attend Temple Emanuel regularly (see link at the bottom of the page). I love it there. Deeply. There are plans in the reasonably near future to move back to my hometown of Tucson, AZ. The temple I will be attending there, coincidentally enough, is also called Emanuel. That bodes very well :) |
