Sometimes traveling is about seeing what’s in front of you at the moment. Every part of the world has a unique surrounding. Seeing the surroundings in other countries is much more grand than looking at the photos in books. It’s also imperative to stop and admire the scenes where you are standing at the moment because it could be a long time before you’ll see the scenes again or never or it won’t the same when you return years later.
Last Friday night, my aunt and uncle hosted a Shabbat dinner on top of a building overlooking the beautiful city of Jerusalem. I had the opportunity to see the city transform into various shades of colors as I was there from when the sun was still high up in the sky until it was completely set.
In addition to enjoying viewing the beautiful scenes, I enjoyed the sounds of the beats of people’s feet taping the floor as they danced and the tunes of music sung by a group of adorable young boys.
