The Way To GO (brief description)

GO is a game based on a 19 by 19 board, played by two opponents. It is played with two different colored stones (many of them). The objective is to capture your opponents stones by surrounding them. this is called atari. The stones must be placed only in intersections. It can get very complex, and it has difficulty levels, from 50 kyu to 1 dan.
It is mostly a strategy game, but involves inner thought, since the stones are not killed just, captured, and it envolves defense not attacking. Surviving is the way to go. Two sides, two teams. Two points of view.

A New Book, A New Way of Thinking

I found Confucius particularly interesting and intriguing for two reasons (but yet more to be found). One: It is not a jewish, islamic, or christian/catholic book, and that for me is great because I feel I can get away of cultural and political backgrounds and history for just a second. When I read Confucius one can sense a book filled with knowledge, and with teachings, but I don't quite feel them as the teachings that I receive in school (some are just a boring speech, and a worksheet to be completed), these are like advices, experiences, that you simply absorb. 

These are things you want to learn... It can be absorbed in many ways, and many interpretations can be made.

Two: Each Book is focused on one region of the human life. It tells you before hand what you have to expect and if you are not interested in what that book has to say, you just skip it. It is a relaxed type of reading: not much attention has to be paid to get a message (Not guaranteed you will get the best but...) It makes you enjoy it. 

I will try and remember the most I can about it, for it is a human lesson to be learned in a passive way. 

Enjoy every moment in life...

Presidential Gestures

On Obama's acceptance speech he is confident as he has always been, but now that he is Mr. President he has a straight and penetrating look. He owes nothing to the people. Looks determined to achieve his so promised oaths. He is definitely efficient to convince his audience, but he doesn't have to put much effort into this, they after all chose him President of The United States of America. He is a professional doing this, that is his job, that is what made him win. He uses lots of hand gestures and moves his body towards the people. Nods a lot. 

We ought to get used to the public speaking skills of this man, for we will be hearing him for the next 4 years...

Elie and Job

Comparing the Bible, a sacred and holy text to a memoir of a holocaust surviver, is not to be done, for there would be no chance of getting to a conclusion that is worthy enough for the memoire or the Bible.
Indeed, in Night, Job is mentioned, for Elie (protagonist...) lost his faith in God. For me the memoire is more vivid, It is actually more vivid, you can feel the pain, sorrow, anger, and hunger. 

This is actually a story that is credible, and we know that it is a true one. Unlike Night, we just have to have faith, to be able to see the Bible just as a memoir and teachings book too. 

Now the difference is that in Exodus, the Jews were saved by moses; a leader...

So was that the problem? Lack of a leader in order to save the jews from the camps? 

I don't know. I will never know. Probably my most accurate answer would be that since Exodus to The Holocaust, many things have changed, including the people, so maybe they were not meant to be saved, even though I will always hate to think that... I guess it was not God who saved them, but Moses, and we just interpret the order of God to Moses in a wrong way. 

Night is not just a book, it is historical context (recent one). It is 6 million of my people, including 60 of my family members who perished too. 

The Bible just doesn't get me as much as the Holocaust, its just more distant...

In my opinion, we were asked to read Job in conjunction to Night, because the Jews in the concentration camps, were put to test by God (if you can say that) as well as Job. He was put to test of his faith. The Jews were put to test to see how much did they believe in God, and to question themselves even if he existed, and why (if he did) were they there. 

The test was that if after this tragedy they would still believe in him. Many did. Many did not.

The thing is to always believe, no matter if good or bad overtake you. God is here not only to be around for good things but for evil ones too. He was not the author of this. We ALL have free will. And everyone of us one day will be judge upon him and by him, and that will be the only day that will matter for us to see if we were on the good side or the dark one. 

Choose well for you will be judge in the highest of all courts... 

The Journey (Exodus 16-35)

"I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them wether they will walk in my law or no. An it shall come to pass, that on the sixth day they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gathered daily. " (Exodus 16:4). 

In my perspective, this sis one of the most important moments of the journey from egypt to Eretz Canaan. This is because the people in the desert were hungry and thirsty, if they had trusted Moses on to leading them into the desert by God, they expected food too. So this was the first proof of faith that God had of whom really believed in him. Some of them gathered more than one ration of food, because they were afraid that they might not have tomorrow. The people who had enough were satisfied, but the ones who grabbed more, and this is one of the first moments that greed happens, there extra ration rotted, and they could not enjoy it, and for that matter, nor did anyone. When I read this part of the Bible in Hebrew, it said that this Mana tasted of whatever you wanted it to taste like. 

and this is why, this mistrust led to that long long forty year walk in the desert which walking normally it would only take about ten to fifteen days. God needed to wipe out clean all of the people which once had doubted him. And for new trustful generations to merge. Moses was included in this group of people, he sometime had not believed in God, and had doubted him and questioned his actions...

"Yee shall offer no strange incense there on nor burnt sacrifice, no meat sacrifice, neither shall yee pour drink offering there on. And aaron shall make an atonement upon the horns of it ones in a year with the blood of the sin offering of atonements: once in the year shall he make attonment upon it troughout your generations: it is most holly un to the lord." (Exodus 30:9)

and finally here comes one of our jewish first traditions: Not to mix meat with milk, and Yom kippur, the asking of forgiveness, and the sounding of the horn of the goat (Shofar).

In mount sinai Moses hiked and hiked for many days to receive the commandments of God. Finally he came down with the stone tablets. But what he saw was astonishing. His people had made a golden statue and were worshipping it. I imagine this every time I think about it. Moses this great leader having freed all of this people from slavery and no them being insolent by dishonoring God? This was exactly why God left them in the desert for forty years, he needed a pure keen. Moses dropped the tablets from anger,  and God was angry, so he had to go up again for days, to get new tablets.... Exodus ends, and --Moses gets to see the promised land from a mountain-only its overview- for he had too doubted the one and only God.

Pulp Fiction Quote (Ezekiel 25:17)

By chance I was watching the movie by Quentin Tarantino "Pulp Fiction", and in one of the scenes a character cites a passage from the bible. But as a fan of Tarantino's movies I looked into the KJV, and the passage was not the same. It had been adapted by Tarantino and Samuel Jackson to generate popularity. 

The following is the original passage from the KJV:

"And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them."

This is the passage from "Pulp Fiction":

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.”

Its interesting that in this movie many details in scenes are from other famous movies, plays or texts...

(Exodus 1-15) Shaking Off The Egyptians

The first moment in history that hebrews are pursued. But the love of one of the mothers was greater than that of the orders of the Pharaoh. She put her son on a safety raft, and so he flowed with the river. 

The Pharaoh's choices were not coherent, it is mad to slaughter every hebrew boy born, but he had his reasons, he was afraid they might have taken over, but many other citizens disagreed, in fact the very daughter of the Pharaoh did. "she had compassion for him, and said this is one of the hebrew boys"(pg 67). 

This is the beginning of the end of hebrew slavery in Egypt. Its ironic that the Pharaoh having raised Moses, and Moses having end the Egyptian slave method. 

Then he fled  Egypt, for e wanted a true life, the real one and god appeared to him "God called on to him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I" 

I think that the appearance, or at least the voice of God has to be terrifying, it has to be shocking. This is why Moses obeyed him, he followed him, the only God. 

Nevertheless, when The Supreme one informed him that he had to confront the Pharaoh, he doubted God. He questioned God. 

After this came the 10 plagues, because of the negligence, and evilness of the Pharaoh. The two brothers Moses and Aaron did not believe this possible, but it was, after witnessing what is today one of the biggest enigmas of history.  

The Pharaoh still refusing to let them go, suffered one of the most horrid punishment (plague) considered. The death of the primogenitors "and all the first born in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of the Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even unto the first born of the maid servant..." And so this was the end. They had succeed, their people were free. 

We Jews, have a tradition, or law that on every door of our home we place something called a "mezuzah" which is a small parchment rolled into a little metal or bronze capsule that is usually nicely decorated. This is resembling the blood of sheep that the jewish families had to spray on their doors, for as not to be visited by the angel of death that killed all of the egyptian children. Today instead of blood, thank God we use the mezuzah for protection in our homes. 

So finally we were free. And this was passover. " seven days shall yee eat unleaved bread; even the first day yee shall put away leaven out of your houses" and that we still do, its called Pesach. 

So, Moses lead the jews to the desert, and made many miracles opened the sea, and brought food upon them from the sky. The egyptians received their punishment in the Red Sea...

(Gen. 10- 24) The Fight

And so Noah's generations continued to grow, until ambition appeared again. But this was to be expected, we are humans, we are animals hungry for power, and will do anything to achieve it. to repeat the story we wanted to reach God to prove that we our sublime beings. Don't we understand that we are just feeble, and ill whited animals, that say are superior, for as not to feel inferior? We compete in savage forms, that are not at all honest or equal. We just want our own benefit. And so we wanted to reach God by building a tower of material. 

God is flawless, so he changed every bodies language, and way of speech, and so harmed us with our most common and great fears: Difference. We can't cope with this, we are xenophobic, closed on to new cultures, and are wrapped tight into our own way of thought. 

In the other hand, maybe only few people seek good for others, and usually only people they love. Sarai gave permission to Abraham to have a child with Hagar, and so he did he, and Ishmael was born have hebrew have egyptian. Today arabic people are the direct decedents of him. But years later, God told Abraham, what was to be the beginning of the coveted ones, the jewish religion, he told him to circumcise himself, and then Sarai being 99 years old, she bore Isaac, and he was circumcised. From now on all jews were to be circumcised, as to convey our pact with God. 

This is the beginning of another new era, what was to be a problem in the 20th and 21st century between hebrews and arabs, and as far as I know, we are brothers, semites we are. Born from the same father. And still as humans we fight, and won't stop, until the other is not around to bother...

(Gen. 3-9) Temptation Leads to Perdition, but outstanding leaves you standing...

Eve was the guilty one for having eaten from the prohibited tree. From all the trees in the garden, she had to choose to disobey the supreme one, and eat from it. By eating from it, she automatically accepted the punishment. 

What's funny is that we never learn. We keep on eating from the forbidden tree, for the reason that its forbidden. When they sinned is a very important moment because they realize they are naked, that they have shame, and that after disobeying God they will need to make their own way. 

They were left on their own, and so came Cain and Abel. And he killed his brother from envy, from still his animal instincts. So he was punished by God, as we are punished now days for our sins. We multiplied after years to create a civilization that could be self sustained, we needed a civilization, a new way of life, for as to paradise, we are never to return...

As we rose into society we learned how to sin, and how to be mischievous. Thats why the flood came. We couldn't continue living that way, imagine, what we would be now; the scum of all scums. 

"And God remembered Noah" This is proof that the just ones will never pay for sinners. God will remember you if you are good, and behave and follow his laws. Being good will always pay off. So what happened with Noah, and his ark, into a new way of living, with new people, and ideas, has happened to modern history many times. 

we have changed our clothing, our political leaders, we have followed many of them, we have built and destroyed, we have gone to wars, and then rise back. This is what I think life consists of. Learning, and changing. Replacement comes within our hands, and we accept it. 

The Kickoff (Bible Genesis 1 and 2)

The beginning of all times. The root. Described as simple as "Let there be light, and there was" . The creation of life, in only seven days. Light separated from darkness, water from land, and sky from sea. The creation of humans and animals. God's ideas were perfect, with no flaws. Everything had to fit together and work as clockworks. 

So along came man. The final mortal ruler of the world. Women created from our bare flesh, and for this matter they are part of us, and we are part of them. We are meant to leave our progenitors for our very own "ribs". 

We were in paradise. God gave it to us offered it to us. But only we were banned from one single tree of temptation. Even though, we committed the crime, and dared to eat from it, and were kicked out of paradise, to begin to be ashamed of our nudity. 

But the real question that I've always had in my mind is: How can you explain these seven days of miracles with science? Remember that science can be explained, but religion is just a matter of faith. 

First of all the main point of creation was to begin a civilization, to follow the light that was created. So God made man from dirt, and women from his ribs, (that were made of dirt). 

So, we could explain this by the division of cells, and the creation of the world we can say it was not seven days, but maybe 7,000,000,000,000 trillions of years. It was sure a long process, that in the end the person who does not want to believe, has many reasons not to, but again, its the amount of faith you have, to believe these things. 

This is probably one of the most important parts of genesis, and I would dare to say, in the whole bible, because its the very beginning. This is the only moment in all human history if you could say history, that we are innocent. From this point on, we as humans start to sin, to commit crime, and to disobey god. At this point all was fine, until we surrendered to the temptations of a single fruited tree, that let us out of the paradise, to never go back...

In the second chapter of genesis, the word LORD is restate many times in capital letters, referring to the one and only god of yours. This is because, from this point God tells us he is the true and only one, and that he is our Lord, and we shall obey him, in his commands, but at the same time we have freedom of choosing the path we want to take in life. 

Adam and Eve chose the rough one unfortunately, but that is how it came to be. This is the first step of creation and men in its interaction with himself, and the environment that surrounds him. 

Again, This is only the "genesis"(beginning), and there is much more to come. 

The Beginning of The Holy Book (preface, ch.1,ch.6,ch.10,ch. 11)

                                                            

From the first glimpse of this strong writing I can already tell the magnitude of its importance. In my point of view it's the kind of writing that can transmit many different things to every body. One can understand it and have a different message from the other. 

It is also nice to hear some credit for the bible from the Jewish side. 

This book is not completely religious. It is political, social, and psychological. It can change someone's ways to think, if it gets into their skin. It is fantastic, it's a unique book, with wisdom from thousands of years ago, and full of mysteries to uncover. It reflects the situations, ad feelings of the people from the time, and will rise to tell us a story...

The death of the Queen, its like the death to the country, it's the face of it being torn off. But in the end the people are still alive and well... Live goes on, fast and well, as the chain continues for who knows how long. Each time a new queen, each time more books, and more achievements. 

The introduction of a new ruler, always  exiting at the beginning when they are young and naive. But as time passes the job just gets harder and herder. You would think that being a king or queen would be a piece of cake, but it certainly isn't. It is not a good system, and that is why we don't have it now days. To be a king leaves you with the responsibility of the people and the empire. You can't quite take the risk of messing it up. You can't undo, or replay, i the meantime you rule, you learn and gain experience. Hardships will be, and a companion they may have, because they will need all the help they can have. I admire some Kings. I admire the ones who respected other peoples, and were fair with the people. and this is what leads to be honored by your own people with something like a bible...

As it has been for all times, some groups of people do not always agree with the rest. Division came upon these thoughts of indifference. Division caused fights in the country, and finally the break up of some peoples called the Puritans, and the birth of the Lutherans, Protestants, and more branches of Christianity. Some people were frightened for the amount of power, or the ideas that could harm them from another group, or person, and because of fright and envy they managed to convince the peoples that the innocent were guilty. Guilty of life, of thought, and of leadership. The maximum punishment was applied to the faultless. Death, and then followed (if they were lucky enough to be dead by now) the profanation of their bodies. Mutilation, and the separation of the body parts was completed by displaying these grotesque sights to the public as a warning. 

So as for God's Secretaries, we can all be, we can all interpret in our own what what we read from god's book. We can all help the divine one. But as far as King James, he did nothing to provoke this chaos directly, he had no interaction with the people. 

Grammar exercises 1 and 2

1. In dealing with students on the high-school level - that is, the second, third, and forth year of high school - we must bear in mind that to some degree they are at a difficult psychological stage, generally called adolescence. Students at this level are likely to be confused mentally, to be subject to involuntary distractions and romantic dreaminess. They are basically timid or self-conscious; they lack frankness and are usually very sensitive but hate to admit it. They are motivated either by great ambition, probably out of all proportion to their capabilities, or by extreme laziness caused by the fear of not succeeding or attaining their objectives. Fundamentally they want to be kept busy but they refuse to admit it. They are frequently the victims of earlier poor training, and this makes every effort doubly hard. They are usually willing to work, but they hate to work without obtaining the results they think they should obtain. Their critical faculties are beginning to develop and they are critical of their instructors and of the materials they are given to learn. They are beginning to feel the pressure of time; and although they seldom say so, they really want to be consulted and given an opportunity to direct their own affairs, but they need considerable guidance.

2. They seldom admit that they need this guidance and they frequently rebel against it, but if it is intelligently offered they accept it with enthusiasm. If they are healthy they are capable of long periods of concentration and an extraordinary amount of work. They are trying, most of them, to form political ideas and they have a tendency to be either extremely idealistic ( which is usually another term for radical ) or conservative, blindly accepting what their fathers and grandfathers believed in. It is in this period that students can be most easily and permanently influenced. It is the period in which they form strong attachments for their teachers. Their outlook on life is usually extremely exaggerated. They are either far too modest and retiring, or extravagantly boastful. They are much more susceptible to the influence of a strong personality than to that of a great intelligence. Of all periods of life, this is what may best be called the 'plastic age'.

The Key for Success

Penelope's story is one of the most interesting ones that I find. The idea of knitting a piece of clothing, knitting a story, and a bulletproof plan is genius. There are many ways to tell someone to back off, to get away or to just forget it. But the idea of doing it in a nice, and reasonable way, is the best way one can employ. I wish I could always reject invitations or proposals in a nice way, because I don't really want them. Sometimes I even accept them because I'm incapable of saying no. This is one of my biggest defects. 

Fittingly, Penelope succeeded in this aspect of social life, and more so she was loyal to her husband; she followed her principals, and what she knew was was the right thing to do. Loyalty is extremely vital for a relationship to function in the honest and religious way. 

And I am sure that ( and from personal experience) when one is loyal, even thought you have to wait for ten years-  it will be worth it, it will be worth the wait, and you will feel extremely satisfied with yourself, for doing what you did. 

Penelope's determination was also an important factor. If she had not had this determination, her goal had never been accomplished. So is it a combination of determination and loyalty that lead to success? 

Maybe it just depends on what you feel like accomplishing, and how much you want it.

"The Green Eyed Monster" that lies between us...

Jealousy. Again, a common feeling between humans. It is an emotion that similar to envy, it can make us do many things, we might repent. For example in the case of a couple, if the man is cheating on his wife probably, she will make him suffer the consequences by divorce or separation. The thing is that some of us, take this situations differently too. some of us react better than others. A wife might not divorce, but be more drastic and give death to her husband...

In case of the gods, using Juno's story as an example, she turned her rivals into animals, but of pity gave one back its form, but the other, is now the great bear... Again I will say this and keep on saying it: We are not gods. We can't act like them ,we have to use human behavior. 

So could a man or a woman love so much their pair, to be capable of taking the life out of another one? 

Jealousy can come in many forms. the reaction of the person feeling it, may make him or her to become self centered, or to detach from what they love. To feel miserable, and forgotten too. 

I can say this is a common feeling between us, because there is always, always going to be someone better than us, smarter, richer, taller, better looking, or more mind witted. Earth is full of this. One has to think; I am not the best, but still not the worst. With having this said, some people are not as strong emotionally as others. If one feels envy they might drop everything they have fought for, and worked for. Life might loose value to them, finally bringing death to themselves, This is the maximum point of reaction to the green eyed fellow. 

There are more ways to be Jealous such as if someone exceeds on a subject and you don't, or maybe in school with a sport or something. But this is not as deep as being snatched away from your lover... But how could I know? Well, when I was a Child I had the misfortune of being a kid with split up parents. Oh, but my mother had a good reason; my father, as he is had been with another woman, so my mother said this was the end of it, and so at 10 years old, my parents were divorced, after 11 years of marriage. My point with this is that someone indirectly can suffer the consequences of jealousy, even though in this case it was also a little bit of self awareness of being replaced. 

In the end, our emotions finally rule over us, and we can do little to help it. But, hey, that is what life is all about, isn't it?

What love can make you do.......

War is something tremendously serious. This is the fight for honor, freedom and power. The strongest one wins. The other one will lie defeated, on the ground. In a war the positions are very clear. Either you are here or there, but not in the middle. You cant. So What would happen, if a close one to you, would betray you, and leave you, and your campaign for the opponent? But sometimes love rules over us, like it did to Scylla, the daughter of Nisus, the king of Minos. She was in Love with the enemy. But what could she do? but the interesting part, is that thanks to her, the invaders fled. So we can draw the conclusion that a bad thing leads to a good one. the thing is that not always we will have this luck. 

When we disobey our parents, on not to be with a certain boy or girl, but we still do. But unfortunately we are not gods, and we can´t magically stop our children of doing stupid things, and actually that is part of life. In the story of Cupid and Psyche, she was so curios to see who her husband was, she killed their marriage. I always think that there are somethings that are better left off, without knowing them, for our own good. I can say this from personal experience. Curiosity is a curse sometimes. 

Even when we think only the young and unexperienced make mistakes, we realize the experienced ones can too make them. Taking the story of Venus and Adonis as an example, we are humans. We have evolved in to an immense ball of emotions, which rule us as people. So even when we think we are standing on land, we might as well be on sand. Perhaps i am in love, but instead i feel a pain in my heart, to replace that emotion with something bitter, because in my subconscious I can't accept love, or because it frustrates me because I know I cant have it...

Our brain is very powerful, it can make us see many things.

Fortunately for our senses, it is unavoidable, it is a human feeling, that can't be torn away. This is it. This is love. 

Where is your Hero?

Perseus was Zeus's and Danae's son. He was a half god, a hero. He sleighed medusa, the three headed dog, and defeated many enemies. He never had any injuries, and he was always victorious. But as I said, he was a god, and this is only a myth. So my question is: What would happen to a human (normal one, like me) if he tried to be a hero? Would he succeed? 

I think that thee are not Heros only in myths. Anyone, who has the will, and the conviction can be one. A hero can be different and do different things. The daily public force that can help us get our cat down from the the tree, to the man who delivers our mail, can be heros. Without them our lives would be much complicated, so isn't Helper a synonym for hero?..

We are not familiar with many heros now days. We are so self-centered, and think we are the best, we now for sure we don't need a helping hand, this is very wrong. We are humans. We need as much help as we can possibly have! My recommendation is to seek for a hero, even if its like your mother, or brother, they too can be heros. be flexible. Reach out for the hand. 

the bad side is that someday our heros will die... But only physically, since if they were good, they will remain in our memories and hearts for ever. This is because of the impact they made on us. We will remember. 

My hero is my Grandfather. He is that and more to me. But I also have popular heros like Moshe Ben Dayan (led the six day war, and camp david agreements), and Golda Meir ( Israeli prime minister). 

Find a Hero!
