Jerusalem

I recently realized that Passover this year is going to be a month after the Brexit date, and depending what happens with the ongoing-as-we-speak debate about the deal, we may very well end up with the entire infrastructure of the country collapsing by then. So one of my (non-Jewish) partners suggested that maybe we could celebrate the festival in Jerusalem, since I always pray for that. I had to explain that next year in Jerusalem doesn't mean that next year, I want to go on an overpriced Passover Experience package tour to the physical city of Jerusalem. I mean, no criticism of people who do find that kind of tourism spiritually fulfilling, but it's not the point of the prayer.

( Jerusalem is a metaphor )

So yes, that was extremely educational!
