קבר דוד המלך: The Tomb of King David is a recent (mediaeval) site which could not be the actual burial place as King David was buried in the City of David which lies further east and south:




DOREEN ELLEN BELL-DOTAN, TZFAT: When we take every step in Gratitude and in Respect and Sacred Awe for the power that resides in Nature, then the promise: "Everywhere you step your foot down, there it will be yours" is fulfilled. We become true sovereign on the Land, and our Sovereignty extends from the heights of Heaven to the depths of the Abyss. This is the true meaning of the Kingdom of David - The Kingdom of the Beloved.
DOREEN ELLEN BELL-DOTAN, TZFAT: The Ground of Being is the highest level of Humility. 
The Material Universe is not supposed to be a maidservant - at the disposal and to the use of any and all, without discrimination, without dignity, without recognition, and taken for granted. 
We should be giving The Universe the very same advice that we would give to our beloved Daughters, and Sons too: 
Don’t respond to those who don’t love you. 
Don’t let everyone touch you. 
Don’t give of yourself indiscriminately to those who do not honor and value you. 
Don’t collapse into the arms of anyone who pays you the least attention. 
Give of yourself as you will to those who love and value you and notice the jewels and beauty you hold within. 
Imagine a world in which The Universe refused to respond to anyone who didn’t approach it with love and utmost respect. Imagine if metals, for instance, did not allow themselves to be smelted alike for those who make jewelry and those who make shackles, those who build homes and those who build prisons. 
Imagine if Material did not actualize except for those who reached out to it in Love and the utmost Respect and Gratitude. 
Heaven is very discriminating about who is allowed to touch it. Earth must be so too. 
That reality is not only possible; it’s where we are supposed to be living. That reality is called The Land of Israel in Torah. The Land of Israel is not a geographical area and most certainly not a political entity that can be conquered and defended by force of arms. It is a State of Being that is manifested when we attain the level of Humility whereupon though we know that the Creation will materialize to us even if we abuse it, even if we disregard it, even if we take it for granted - we do not and regard it with sacred awe.

Florence Enrile Mandus: This is our mixed family. My husband is a mixture of Russian Jew (not sure if that’s the correct term?) from his father’s side and Scottish American from his mother’s side. I am Filipino: Spanish-Filipino from my father’s side and Portuguese-Chinese Filipino on my mother’s side.

The mouth is a razor.
The heart — still life;
Constrict Bod.

Matthue Roth (@matthue): Not that I don’t love my day job, but if I could do absolutely nothing but read The Hobbit aloud to my kids, I would in a second.

Eunice Malijan, Hobbit House, Manila, Philippines: Filipinos are like Hobbits because they are a peace-loving, party people, who love to eat, drink, sing, dance, and laugh; who are secure in their visions, seeing well above the ordinary turn of events, giving hope to a cynical and litigious world, preferring, instead, the confines of The Shire.
Janelle + Jonathan: We wanted something modern and sophisticated, but with some whimsical and fun details. We loved the modern color palette of gray and yellow, with a few pops of orange color. The ceremony incorporated our various heritages and religions – Christian and Jewish, Irish and Filipino. 

Walang ligaya sa lupa na hindi dinilig ng luha.

Filipino Proverb: There is no earthly bliss not watered by tears.

Bnei Lot are of an ancient origin. In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
