The “wanna be a wonk” post got me thinking, if you weren’t frum, what would you have like to do with your life? What profession? What hobby?
I don’t think along those lines.
I have never had the desire to not be frum. But were I to contemplate it, I would probably have been a singer in those days when I could still sing well. I have no regrets about my life. I always wanted to be a wife and mother, and then B”EH a grandmother, and those goals were more than met happily. Having a little money to spend would have been nice, but I don’t view my life as lacking just because I never really had much in the way of material wealth. Being “sameach b’chelko” doesn’t just refer to money. (I do wish I could have afforded to go to E”Y when it was physically easier for me to do so).
…the very best, like no one ever was.
Who says a wonk cant be frum?
for a while, i kept on measuring myself based on others, and my perceived feelings bout how they felt about me. then , after help from reading rabbi twerski’s books, and speaking with people, i realized that the only person i want to ever be, is myself
I choose you, Sam2.
