To be in Jerusalem

A few weeks ago I told that I would travel to jerusalem. Well I am now since one week here and I am full of impression so I think i will write more posts when I am back to Germany. My conlusion is if you would convert to judaism you have to do it here in Israel because in Germany or in Europe it means a ticket to synagogue and back, but the real jewish life is not only synagogue is also the living in the life. If you love the reality you love Israel and judaism, it is not easy and it is a desicion for your whole life. For me personally I made the decision to convert to judaism and to live for ever in Israel but at first I have to look after my children, when they are really independet then I can go.Every woman with little children has to make her desicion alone how much power she can spend.
On shabbat so many groups are praying and singing and I made three times Lecha Dodi, so I really made Shabbat. After that all groups were away and I ate alone a little bit of my challa. So you have also to be independet and to run to some groups and to try your best. It is really an adventure or surprise, you need strong nerves.However, I love Jerusalem and Judaism and synagogues and people and the country. On shabbat morning I found a nice synagogue and my shabbat was really beautiful.
The kotel is a beautiful and holy place and I love it in the early morning and in the late evening.It is a wonderful place.
For all people it is a good thing to come to Israel.
