To my dear children whom I miss,
Eliezer, dear, you are worrying about us too
much. Stop obsessing about us. Imagine how bad it would be if you
were called up to serve in the Russian army, given a rifle and had
to learn how to use it. Please remember that this is your father
and mother talking to you. Stop obsessing about your home and your
parents, and stop worrying so much. Make peace with the idea that
you will eventually succeed in Australia. Get on with your own
life, and don't even think about coming back here.
My dear, devoted son, I received your
consoling letter asking us to calm down. Of course we must calm
down. At times it is very difficult to endure it all. But
what can we do?
Dear Zelda and grandchildren,
Don't let him carry on in such a mood.
Everybody in town is envious of you. God will help you, as
it is said in our scriptures "where from will come my help..." We
must hope that you will be able to send us a cheerful letter and
we'll share in your joy from afar.
Best wishes to our brother-in-law Nechemia [Nochem
Rosenbaum] and my dear sister Feiga and nephew Benjamin and his
wife, whom we don't know. I wish you all a Happy New Year.
Your Zev Kayman |
