Some nights back I had serious trouble sleeping. I awoke, or thought I did, in the middle of the night. I was standing at a cross roads in the middle of a dark forest. I was waiting for the Baal Shem Tov to come for we were traveling to a mysterious and distant place.
All I knew was that I was to wait for him to come and get me. Soon we would be traveling down the road, Alexi the baal agala (the wagon driver) would give the horses free rein and we would listen to the Holy words of our master. This would be my first journey with him, I did not know really what to expect. Every turn is something new, wonderful, and strange at the same time.
"You must simply trust my words", he said those of us there.
...And I awoke, and the dream faded from view. Oy, how I ached to return to it.
