Yes, it is hard ... but soooo worth it

Dear readers,

I am so so sorry for not posting for a very long time. Although I have to tell you guys many many things I did not had the time to sit down and get some thoughts together.

I am recently doing an internship in Tel Aviv for a couple of months and for the first time in my life I experience Israel not as a tourist but as a working person.

Before I came many people asked me why I go to Israel. They said its so hard, people are difficult and its a bad country to make a living. I am sure all of you heard this kind of words from people also.... whats interesting is that I never believed it until now, when I learned one thing being here for about three months already its that yes IT IS VERY HARD. But in what sense...?

People argument with the wrong reasons. It is hard because you have to WORK ON YOURSELF.
There is no way avoiding that when you are here. Every day is different. One day you are up in the skies happy and full of energy, the other day you feel blue and dont want to go out of bed. This is what Israel is all about. H.shem does not give you 5 min. to rest. It is a constant roller coaster ride while you are improving your Middot.

One more thing I realized is that its very hard when you dont see the things around you through eyes of Emunah. Especially in Tel Aviv. I constantly have to guard my eyes not to start comparing myself to the girls walking around showing a lot of skin.

... But still I am in Israel and could not be more happy than now. All the time I feel a small missing towards Germany H.shem is showing me how awesome Israel is. Thank you for having me here. Thank you that I can grow and work on myself. Where when not here. Thank you, I love you.
