The Map Redrawn

Five hours ago Israel's border's changed for the first time since 1982.

I can see the images on TV. I watch the videos displayed online, read about the news in the paper.

But I long for something else.

I long to be back where it all is happening, to see the dramatic events firsthand. I long to again walk the hills, and smell the foods, and speak the language.

For the first time since May, I feel so far away from home.

הֲשִׁיבֵנוּ יְיָ, אֵלֶיךָ וְנָשׁוּבָה
חַדֵּשׁ יָמֵינוּ כְּקֶדֶם
