CURVES
בס"ד
10 Adar
Three times today (ok, technically it was yesterday, but whatever), from three different people who don't even know each other, in three different conversations, I was told:
"When G@d closes a door, somewhere he opens a window."
So what if it's a Hollywood nun quote from the Sound of Music? It's true!
& it's today's theme.
:D
As we approach Purim, & in keeping with the theme of intermingled Persian & Jewish history, this gives a historical thumbnail sketch of the area from which Queen Esther & Mordechai sprang.
& this is a sample of my cursive Hebrew calligraphy, which shares some shapes with Arabic:
May we all be blessed with a beautiful Shabbes!

Doors and windows--true! And so unpredictably, too! Hope all is well with you.
בס"ד
Ah yes, the unpredictability factor...this is actually one of my greatest personal challenges. I have noticed that sometimes G@d requires me to be more, uh, spontaneous than I am prepared to be. This causes me no end of grief, as I am want to figuratively stand at the jamb & cry "I know the window's open, but I planned on the door! WAAAAAAHHHH!"
But eventually I come around :}
Thanks for your hope, Peter - I'll write you privately about things later...
