My Passover Journey
This entire experience down in Florida has been quite a journey so far. But soon, it will be Pesach, a day where the Jewish people left a land that they could gain nothing from as they began the search for their true purpose.
This Pesach, I will be going on a couple of journeys, to appease both my Jewish Soul, as well as that of my Animal Soul. For my Jewish Soul, I will be attending the Seder as per tradition the first two nights of the holiday, but unfortunately, I will not be observing Shabbat. This is a trend that has occurred for a while although not my entire life.
The rest of my life over the past few months has done quite an incredible job of preventing me from observing the day of rest. So while I may not be able to fully allow my Jewish Soul, there is still my Animal Soul that seems to need attending to.
This Saturday, I will be going on a long journey known as T3. On this incredible trip, my physical and mental abilities will be tested to their limits, but should I come out on the other side still whole, I can finally appease a great want of my Animal Soul and thus commit more time to my Jewish Soul.
Every aspect of me is on the way to becoming more whole, and just as the Jewish People sought out an answer as they made their exodus from Egypt, I will be finding answers of my own this weekend.
