It was a good discussion. We used our own words.

We talked about October 7th, what we had just read in Eicha=Lamentations, how we feel and perceive the similarities of emotion, loss, pain, suffering.

There were 18 of us who gathered last night for Tisha B'Av, a small and intimate group.
Having the opportunity to express my feelings was very welcome, and not what i expected.
