Year Course Moments

| | TrackBacks (0)
Every so often on Year Course there is a moment in time where it hits you and you just have to take a look around and realize you are in Israel and on Year course.

Then you say to yourself, " Oh my g-d, I am actually on Year Course."

A moment doesn't hit me often, but when it does, it is an eye opening and surprisingly humbling feeling.

They have occurred on buses I have taken into Tel Aviv for one reason or another and during the ocassional moment when the fun just feels too good to be true.

And moments have occurred when I'm surrounded by friends doing even the most mundane tasks whether it be at work or sitting in a lecture.  Because lectures are only fun when surrounded by year course friends with cell phones in hand listening to ridiculous stories professed to you in a dramatic manner.

It also happened to me once as I was walking from my apartment to somewhere else in Holon.  I looked at the sky and saw it in all its pristine blue glory. Cloudless and clear, it was a sight to see and something to be thankful for.  The weather was cool but the sun was shinning and its rays beamed heat that warmed my (in desperate need of some vitamin D) skin.  It was just one of those moments when you are thankful for your presence and the state that you are temporarily in.

Temporary - 5 more months

And every day holds the opportunity to have a "moment"

Perhaps these moments are just points of realization that I am growing up and maybe even .     .     .    . maturing
