He'd agree).<br /><br />That's really cool! It's a curious tradition, and there's something to it that I don't yet understand.

Saw this post on your status. Shabbat ...Hey David!<br /><br />Saw this post on your status. Shabbat is great isn't it?...I mean you don't have to ask me twice to not work!<br /><br />I was in Jerusalem this past summer and got my first taste of a "real" Shabbat. It is amazing to see how such a big city can turn into such a calming place. Ever since then, I think I really realized what a great thing it was.<br /><br />Hope you're well!<br /><br />SteveSteve Knoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182862650840932810.post-45364323191395296492011-01-17T19:41:19.285-08:002011-01-17T19:41:19.285-08:00I'm glad of the company, and that some part of...I'm glad of the company, and that some part of that joy might be shared!<br /><br />It reminds me of one of my favorite lines from Francis Bacon:<br /><br />"This communicating of a man's self to his friend works two contrary effects : for it redoubleth joys, and cutteth griefs in halves. For there is no man that imparteth his joys to his friend, but he joyeth the more ; and no man that imparteth his griefs to his friend, but he grieveth the less."David Carreonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11816955307668560061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182862650840932810.post-51018720528657142122011-01-17T19:29:24.348-08:002011-01-17T19:29:24.348-08:00I just came along on this outing with you and it w...I just came along on this outing with you and it was beautiful.
