WHAT I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT – OK

A few entries back I wrote about what I was passionate about. I don’t know what I wrote and I am too tired and too lazy to check now. I don’t think it matters anyways. Unless I contradict myself and I doubt it.
Tonight I went to our local bookstore, Chapters, to read my book on the Kindle. It is called Sarah’s Key and I love it. It is about the Holocaust. I have read a lot about the Holocaust and plan to read more. I am not even sure why.
Anyhow after reading the book I started to drive home and realized what are my passions.
I am PASSIONATE about being Jewish. It is the center of my being. Even though I don’t believe at all in a GOD or higher being I am TOTALLY JEWISH. I love all the traditions and the music. I LOVE JERUSALEM. I am passionate about having my grandchildren learn about being Jewish. My son and his girlfriend don’t seem to have any feeling about it so I think it is up to me. I just have to decide on the best way to pass down my passion.
I am also passionate about children. I LOVE children. I love spending time with them. I would love to be BUBBY to lots of children – to share activities together.
This afternoon I spent time with my grandson. His baseball game was rained out so I wasn’t sure what we would do. I had planned to take him horseback riding but it was also cancelled. Instead we drove to the mall where there is a playground. He played there awhile and then we went on the train ride around the mall. After that we went to the bookstore where I read him a book and he bought a few. We came home and while I made supper he played with his WEBKINZ on the computer. All in all we had a great afternoon together.
In the car I played Jewish/Hebrew music. He asked me what Yerushalayim meant. I would love to take him to Israel one day but probably by the time it would be meaningful to him I will be too old.
All this has inspired me to stay healthy. I hope it’s not too late. I have to make sure I exercise and watch what I eat a little closer.
So it’s time for bed. Sorry I haven’t been keeping up with your entries. I do think about all of you. Maybe on the weekend.
Oh today hubby and I went to the synagogue to reserve our plots!!!!!!!!!! Number 123 and 124!!!!!!!!!!!
