I One morning I wake up thinking--I don't need to be doing this anymore. It's too much. I go swimming in the afternoon, which is wonderful. That night I meet two American friends; we eat grilled vegetables and drink whiskey. Tipsy in the taxi home, I find that Jerusalem is again a magical city. I pass the Old City walls. I pass where Abraham almost sacrificed his son, where the Temple used to stand, where Jesus was crucified, where Mohammed went up to heaven. Then I go home, brush my teeth and go to sleep. |
