Part 7: Yes, I am Jewish & I Am Here to Write About It

Updated: 9 hours ago



My Long Journey Home to Judaism: Part 7

Yes, I Am Jewish & I Am Here to Write About It


Despite all of the abuse, all of the boycotting, sanctioning, and divestment of my small business; despite all of the withholding and stealing of wages; despite all of the attempts to take away my civil liberties and my life, Hashem has held me fast.


Though my feet slip (on occasion) under the weight of the heinous hate, I am still here. I’m still standing. And I can proudly say, I am a Jew.


For too long, I have allowed myself to be silenced by the abusers. For too long, I have hidden the truth (which is the reason and rhythm for, and of, life). For too long, I have let the darkness outshine Hashem’s light.


So, with strength and courage I will write.


Though I know the harassment might increase, I will write.

(As I’ve been writing these very posts, stalkers are actively sending messages to try to get me to run in fear.)

I will write even if no one reads.


I will write, if for no other reason than to keep a Jewish flame burning for my family’s heritage sake.


I will write in hopes that hearts will be changed, and peace (not hate) will reign.


Too I will write in the hopes that, perhaps, my writings may reach another lost soul—maybe a Jew who left Hashem for Christianity or another faith, maybe a fellow Yid who knows it not, or perhaps a gentile (who are welcome to convert to the Jewish faith)—and he or she can start their journey home too.


Love me or hate me, my reply is the same,

“Yay though they slay me, yet will I praise You Hashem!”

And I will write.


Am Yisrael Chai!
