Writing on the Beautiful Ordinary

Entertaining Angels: Lessons People Outside My Religious Community Have Taught Me on Faith

When we were young and foolish, my now-husband and I (along with another friend) spent a weekend hitchhiking through northern Israel. We were spending a semester abroad there and made up our minds to see more of the Galilee and Golan Heights than our class field trips would allow. It was one year before the second intifada and two years before 9/11. Looking back, I know we were privy to a peaceful season, a thin sliver of the young country’s history when things were exceptionally calm.
So many people picked us up and gave us rides in our weekend trip. One was a dairy farmer from a nearby moshav who knew my hometown of 4000 people (and many more cows) because he had visited it to improve their own dairy methods. Another was a thoughtful, articulate guy with red hair and a nice car who talked to us about the plausibility of a peace deal.
The most memorable ride wasn’t really a ride at all. A small truck filled with Russian-speaking men passed us several times as we were making our way to a nature reserve. The last time they passed, we watched in wonder as they stopped at the top of a hill and backed slowly down to where we were standing. The men piled out–the oldest couldn’t have been more than 25–and opened the back of the truck to show us huge bunches of bananas. With hand gestures and broken Hebrew, they let us know they couldn’t give us a ride but didn’t want to be unhelpful. And then they pushed bananas into our hands, took a picture with us, and climbed back into the truck and driving off...

We all just want to be better persons than we were yesterday. Everyday we try our best to make all the right choices. We thought life is short and that we should be spending this with people who make us feel extra special than the rest. Why are we wasting time with people who are only taking advantage of us? Is this a good attitude? Is it proper for us to think that we are being exploited? Aren't we all just supposed to be glad we are given a chance to help another soul? Are we being too stingy here?

They dress their kids in the best of clothes not only during social gatherings but even as they head to the nearby mall or park. They also buy the latest gadgets for their kids.

The very next time I read a blog, I hope that it won’t disappoint me as much as this one. After all, I know it was my choice to read, however I genuinely thought you’d have something useful to talk about. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you can fix if you weren’t too busy searching for attention.
