So as I said I became a kindergarden teacher ? started to teach and when I was 23 was enlisted to the army ? thank God I killed no one ? in fact did nothing all day long in Dover Zahal?By then I had met my  Zionistic dream ? a pilot in the Israeli  Air Force and he had met this rich South African girl and we married our  dreams ?It got me out of the army after nine months.?unfortunately it took me thirty years to let go of this painful relationship.  Both  my  dad and my ex, lost all their money ? my ex lost all our money ? both in building ? my ex went into building after he left the air force?..I think I have a karmic lesson to learn here about being able to take care of myself  or something ? it has been a great challenge and thank God I have a roof over my head ?  a small one but warm and cosy one  in Zfat ? overlooking the Kinneret ??.i  have fixed it up  beautifully and now have a home for myself and my  three beautiful copper haired children?? I have had to learn to give up many things in my life ? and I have gained many thing in my life ? those things that I have gained will come with me to every life time ? After having to give up my  big fancy home I heard a talk where the facilitator  said ? ? I have never seen a hearse with a U-Haul behind it? ? I realized that it was time to let go ?  I have simplified my life and am  enjoying the freedom that comes with this??

 I write poetry which has been a gift of healing for me?.I hope to publish a book of my healing journey? I will share some of it with you ? mainly the peace poems -which will give you an overview of my life ? you might be shocked by what I am revealing to you here but it is my healing  to be authentic and honest ? to be able to look myself in the mirror and say ? yes ? this is the truth of my life and I have survived it and healed and am still healing some more ?.it is a never ending process?..at some stage I took a course in Gestalt and promised myself to turn over every boulder, rock, stone and pebble in my path until my life can flow?I never imagined I would reveal what I did but I guess when we are ready and strong enough ? the truth can emerge and the healing can begin?..
