A Missive From Mary


(Dear Diary);
I will always be grateful to my elderly Uncle Zachariah for teaching me to read and write that long ago summer when I was ten. There are some thoughts that are too personal; too profound to give voice to but they must be shared, and writing is the best way.
In all sincerity, Mary’am (That’s my Aramaic name)
2 Nisan
April 2nd
Dear Diary
               How can I get close to Ha Shem? Yet that is what I am striving for. Ha Shem means The Name and is the most respectful title I know to call The Holy One. We dare not speak His Name out loud but I pray He will pardon me if I write it from time to time. There is something about El ‘Elyon that is dreadful but I long to have a more meaningful relationship with Him
