There is a thin line between love and hate. There is also a thin line between reasonable and ridiculous. You have heard me talk about the Ethiopian adoption boards before, so here I go again. Maybe this should be a weekly update, board craziness.
Sundown on September 29th began the Jewish New Year and since there are many Jewish families adopting someone had the audacity to say Shana Tova. Wadaya they do that for? Boom! Here we go again. It had religious content and that should not be posted on the boards because it was not about Ethiopia or adoption. Huh?
Shana Tova as far as I can tell means (in Hebrew): A Good Year, A Good and Sweet Year, or May You Be Written and Sealed for a Good Year. Well, I don't know about you, but with this recession I can use all of the blessings I can get in any language it may come to me. Please send me some additional blessings in any language you know: Greek, Italian, Geek, Pig Latin...heck, I'll take them all!
So, people lighten up! And I know it is a little late, but Shana Tova everyone!
P.S. Do you think I'll be having this discussion about the boards around Christmas time if someone says Merry Christmas? Things that make you go hmmm.
