Before going to bed, she’ll say:
“yalnanj ehwor bena bena” (may we wake up on our own - one at a time) - amen!
A whole community NOT waking up
at precisely 04:30 in the morning is a sign of situational normalcy. It
confirms the absence of communal chaos. Same way, not agreeing on everything
all the time is healthful. It means that thoughts, inclinations and choices are
unforced.
However, we gotta listen to each
other to cultivate respect, and knowing that even in the desert you'll find an
oasis. I mean even my wrist watch that seems to be stuck at 8:30 is correct
twice a day. By listening, we understand, and when we are willing to understand
each other, we will become more tolerant, even if we don’t accept each other's
position(s).
