InteGRATion into GRATeFULLness
Singing&Sounding keeps me Sound

Weiss ich den Weg auch nicht - du weisst ihn wohl

Weiß ich den Weg auch nicht, du weißt ihn wohl; das macht die Seele still und friedevoll. Ist´s doch umsonst, daß ich mich sorgend müh, - daß ängstlich schlägt das Herz, sei´s spät, sei´s früh.   Du weißt den Weg ja doch, du weißt die Zeit, dein Plan ist fertig schon und liegt bereit. Ich preise dich für deiner Liebe Macht, ich rühm die Gnade, die mir Heil gebracht.   Du weißt, woher der Wind so stürmisch weht, und du gebietest ihm, kommst nie zu spät; drum wart ich still, dein Wort ist ohne Trug. Du weißt den Weg für mich, das ist genug   I sought haShem and He answered me, and delivered me from all my fears Psalm 34, 5 Save Thy people, and bless ... them and tend (re'em!) them, and carry them for ever Psalm 28 end [ad ha-olam? appears only 3 more times in the Bible]

June 21, 2010 - July 20, 2010

Before documenting my renewed experience with Mika,
after having come back from France and West-Ireland,
[s. a sequence of pages integrated in Godchannel files, beginning with "Heart"]
I want to insert the photos, which I took on my last day,
when I was invited to see the still empty permanent flat.

The frightening, because - so far - rail-less staircase

Joel, Immanuel's stepbrother, comes to help with an electricity-issue

Between lift and rail a poster asks the inhabitants of the house to welcome them: "To all who live at Sella 9 (this is how the street is called: sella=rock) "We are glad to join you as new neighbors with our moving into permanent housing , flat number 7. "We apologize for the temporary inconvenience, that will be caused during a number of adaptations in the flat and, of course, during the time of our moving in. "We wish good neighbor relations for all of us. Efrat, Immanuel, Mika, Tomer Rosenzweig and...Nella"

On July 11, 2010,
I returned from Europe, descended on Israel's airport, and read:
"Never mind what you took with you abroad,
the main thing is that you returned with a smile."
Then I saw Mika running through the empty space between the arriving passengers and their waiting loved-ones,
and - across the railing - I saw not only Efrat , but also Immanuel, ready to ascend the plane, in which I just arrived,
in order to fly to Johannesburg, to bring back the fans of the Mondial...

"Welcome, Grandma!"

Two angels?
The one of golden glass- a gift from Elenor on my last day in France,
does not have to cope with anything
that could cause us to doubt his/her
"angelicality"
....
Mika, on the other hand, though often very "angelic"
has some traits in her present character to cope with:
for instance, quite a big Ego, as we'll see soon:

The situation - 20 hours after my return- Efrat, Mika and her friend Ronni, accepted my idea to make up a story for each of the painted shards which I had found in Ireland on three different beaches. Efrat began to invent the first story....

Ronni listened to Mika, while sitting on Efrat's lap - which probably was not to Mika's liking - so when it was Ronni's turn to tell the last story, Mika left her place and - ignoring Ronni - turned to the backside of her mother and looked into the falling night... Ronni didn't seem to care, but Efrat and I were NOT pleased...

Yet just before this scene, there was another one - on the drawing chest in my room: Mika to Ronni: "Let's draw two Timberbell fairies! Let's do a cooperation [shituf pe'ulah]." Ronni chose the right side of the page and Mika the left side. The cooperation was especially fantastic, when they worked on the fairy on Ronni's side

After Ronni had left, I introduced Mika to the different items I had gathered for her in my four airplanes,
though what can be seen on the photo are only the milk-vessels, with tiny differences in size.

The next morning, Tuesday, July 13, 2010
we were walking Nella in the "labyrinth" of the "Yuvalim Neighborhood", of which Sella Nr. 9 is a part.
[This is the only photo which I took on this day. Why? Was I tired after having taken 560 photos in Europe?]
