Who Are Noahides?
I wrote this for you.
Who are Noahides?
Who are you, man in Italy
searching how to become Noahide?
Who are you, woman in Spain
searching for truth about Noahides?
Who are you, person in Texas
searching for gentiles in the Bible?
You are Souls turning
inward and upward
Escaping threats to be sent
outward and downward.
You are artists
Painting colors of Torah
Unseen for millennia
Unforgotten to this day.
You are archaeologists
Unearthing Truth
Between the rubble of lies
Under dust of falsity.
You are eggs
Incubating in a nest
Through relentless patience
Aside chicks that recognize you not.
You are mourners
Collecting tears
From shattered friendships
And lost years in confusion.
You are newly weds
Building life
With contagious excitement
And virgin enthusiasm.
You are warriors
Slicing your way
Through battlefields of uncertainty
Staring into the eyes of “Just the way it is”
and changing everything.
You are G-d’s creations,
Scattered across the playground.
Unlike Noah
You are not alone.

Wow, thank you.
I think the message of “Staring into the eyes of “Just the way it is” and changing everything” is so well grasped. We look at fear in the eye, with out losing eye contact, we see our lives changing, and we can totally change.
It reminds me of a verse, “I will not be afraid, even as I stare at my enemies.” Our enemy today is fear of change, of lack of acceptance, of being different. That is the enemy we need to stare down.

I was thinking of that verse when I wrote it.

On second reading, I realized that you were.
