running from this overpriced internet cafe

in Eilat-- but quick enough to feed yer imaginashuns with my new plan for the next few days--
going to the pyramids!
Then the Rainbow retreat to shut up for a week, then back to yeshiva, where many beloved brothers have been calling me with wishes for my safe (and smart-assed) return.

typo fun: my fingers 2wice typed "sage" instead of "safe" up there. eh- i won't be so cocky right now

i'd say smart assed is your complete addition. what we've actually been demanding (not wishing) is that you quit the crap and get back to working on yourself so that you can become the person that will live the life that you want to live and will satisfy you, and to have a meaningful relationship that you are not an emotional leech in. I recommend you quit the funny buisness right now. You could have gone on this trip during the many months of beyn zmanim, wisely using this zman time alloted you to work to beliving in yourself and manifesting your dreams in this environment which although not hashkafically in line with all of is, certainly is about manifesting the best in ourselves. If Leon Rosen can find himself amidst the ultraorthochondriac surroundings of BA, certainly wanstu can too. YOu're full of crap man i'm sick of you. get back to work.

I'm not detracting from your amazing experiences. I am saying that you chose to have amazing enlightening experiences at the wrong time. the're's only a month left of zman not including the time after purim. these moments are treasures and we cannot sacrifice them for PURSUIT OF WIND. You were really making amazing progress, you were actually almost ready to stop thinking about girls and start thinking about God and yourself. but you chose to give up on yourself, go on a three week trip with mother and her chidings, and then instead of facing the music (i know, it's hard to come back to yeshivah after leaving...the tzimtzum is really harsh-but you need it right now) and living with your life choices. you already abandoned one life choice of the reform rabbinate. i don't blame you entirely. it's time to say "stu's emotional and spiritual growth is important."
spiritual growth is hard and frought with doubt. read the parasha.
