The DJ was tearing it up and the bass was pounding the club. I was upstairs in the VIP room, my friends had connections. Wondering around and ordering drinks, the same old kind of thing. I was living in the moment sort of. On the one hand I felt cool as I looked down on the dancefloor and felt like this was the pinnacle of life.
This was the beginning of college and I felt it was the best life had to offer. Too bad, after so many years of this finally I made a change and now I’m here where I am today. Unfortunatley too many of our youth are on the same sad path I was on. Only I hope that things will change and that’s why I wrote my book Not Alone Soldier, due out this fall G-d willing. Stay tuned for more insights on my journey of spirituality, Israel, IDF and fatherhood.
