oreeet's script for the open day

hey everyone......check it out....oreet's script for the open day....really interestin stuff

actually it is just a sample

Dearest sister,

By the time you will be holding this letter with your gentle loving hands, I will be gone. You will be looking at my bed - and it is empty. No doubt this will make you very sad, my beloved sister.

I will be leaving like a thief in the middle of the night, the fox and the moon will escort me. As always you will have to face our dear parents alone, this makes me a double thief.

As you know I have been very restless lately, and have had many sleepless nights, those black circles under my eyes are my witnesses.

Palestine is like a chain around my neck and I am yearning to visit other lands, I have heard tales from Jewish merchants of their travels in the Middle East, Persia and Hindustan.

Their stories took hold of my soul and senses and I’m obliged to leave, it is my calling. My heart is heavy with regret, but if I stay a day longer I am as good as dead.

You might wonder how will a short single female travel on her own on roads that are dangerous to the bravest of men… but after much consideration I have found a good answer! I will dress as a man and travel alone! I have been practising many times now; how to conceal my chest, how to deepen my voice and I feel reassured that I can travel safely and without fear.

I have decided to trade in sweets during my travels, sweets are easy to carry and are always in demand. And so I saved and bought enough sweets to destroy a whole village teeth!

I believe I will be returning to the Holy- land next spring with pockets full of gold.

I promise to keep clean and pray ‘Shma Israel every night before I shut my eyes.

Oh Moses son of God! How will I go to Hell!

Yours faithfully

Sarmad
