You Can Go Your Own Way

“Shame on you! Shame on you! Shame on you! How could you post that? What were you thinking? Were you looking for attention? Well, you won’t get any from me.”

I usually spend lunch at shul sitting with my back to the crowd among the old men who don’t speak English.

Today as I set up in my usual perch, a new friend came over and invited me to join the mix, to sit with the other singles, a group of the under-50s…

So I sat in the middle of the mix gulping water and zoning out until I was invited into a conversation. Then I sat quietly trying to understand what was going on. My hearing’s not so good these days.

It wasn’t supposed to end up like this.
