Tel Aviv Diary: Karen Alkalay-Gut

Ezi took Kutya to the SOS fair today and he was immediately snapped up by a new owner.  He is such a wonderful, intelligent dog that I am sure he’ll adapt everywhere.  And for us the goat is out of the house.  Now I feel we can cope with the tiny and various operations, projects, grandchildren, home repairs, etc. that only two weeks ago i thought was beyond our capabilities.  And to accept the things that are out of our hands, like the lives and deaths of those we love.  (See yesterday’s entry)<p>Do I include politics in the category of what is out of our hands?  No.  I continue to believe that every effort must be made to influence local politicians as well as the world to keep alert
