My Conversion Story Journal

May 23, 2024

The end of the school year is extremely stressful, but I have still been learning the Shulchan Aruch, studying with the Rabbi who laughs, learning from the Rabbi who glows, watching the Arc Online videos, going to synagogue, studying with a friend in the community, studying Hebrew, memorizing after bruchas (not going too well), and participating in community events.

Sometimes, I feel like I have no days off. I look forward to my Shabbos nap. Even though there are times that I am absolutely exhausted and frustrated, there is still no place that I would rather be.

Here's a picture from this week's women's event.

G-d, I'm tired, but I just want to take a moment to thank you for all of the learning that I have done this past month. Thank you for all of the people in my life, good and bad. Thank you for bringing me here at this moment in my life. Thank you. I love you.
