Ah…. the musical score is magical. Lost my son 3 yrs ago to depression/addiction. Played trombone….
How ironic you ask this question. I have always wanted to immigrate to Israel, but recently I was reading comments from people who have done so and how hard it is to adjust. Feeling oneself a zionist is not enough to make you happy there if you are single, 66, and not rich. Passion for a Jewish state may not make me personally happy. There are other things that go into being happy. Another thing is I have never been able to speak hebrew with anything near fluency. I thought if I was married to someone who felt the same as I do, this may work. Being a zionist without walking the walk is not enough, but one also needs the love of another person to be happy as well in a new country, at least at my age. What to do? I hope to figure this out one day, but in the mean time I am lucky to have a parent still alive, so I must stay here ( in the USA).
