Dreaming of Other Lands

I often take a nap because of a broken fractured & highly unusual sleep schedule that involves waking up at 4am & staying awake late. Removing alcohol from my evening has caused a radical shift in my energy levels & at +4 days up-regulated or speed up my brains executive function, so now I have to withstand constantly closed eyed highly intense visuals, multi-colored text when reading where all the e's turn blue, all the a's turn red, all the t's turn yellow, its a really hard thing to get used to. I had been using gin to self medicate & love G&T's, but had to stop in order to learn Hebrew, starting at the base like a pre-school student in Israel, learning my ABC's, numbers, basic words, sentences. I can already notice that Hebrew is a more direct language than English where you can say more with fewer words, at least in simple sentences, the most complex I have had to practice translating with help from the Duolingo app on my iPhone SE2. Meg started studying Hebrew on her iPhone 12 mini about 4 weeks ago & seeing how much fun she was having & having studied German (Ganz Toll) with Duolingo back in 2013, I logged in with my existing Google account almost seamlessly & got started, now on a 4 days streak & loving it :) I am already seeing English in a new & more interesting way, looking at words around me differently, thinking about language differently & seeing more nuance & patterns & subtle details in the ways things are said in English that were previously seamlessly part of my normal understandings, but have become the subject of thoughtful pauses & consideration as I cross compare with what I am learning about Hebrew. Shalom friends. Meg & I have solidified our plans to move to Israel within 5 years. I was actually dreaming about using Google or Apple Maps digital route planning to find a rout within Israel during my mid-morning nap today :) I am so excited to develop a pseudo-fluency in Hebrew :) I hate radical islamic terrorism & love the state of Israel & the Israeli high technology socially intelligent loving culture based on Judaism the same religion my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ was part of during his life. Praise be to God! I am glad the USA & Israel are partners on many levels & excited that Israel became part of the OECD & multiple free trade agreements & have lots of ideas that I think I cam implement with Israeli business partners in the hot arid parts of Israel to revolutionize closed water cycle green houses & energy conservation excellence :) I am so excited to be dreaming about the map of Israel in my dreams while sleeping. That means even my sub-conscious loves our future plants to move to Israel. I am super exited to travel to Israel in the near -term future & already started doing google.com/flight research to find good round trip airfare rates so Meg & I can go on a vacation there to check it out IRL :)
