What I fell in love with was the enthusiasm of the instructor.\u00a0 Five minutes into her introduction I knew I wanted to take one of her courses.\u00a0 I was with a friend, and she too agreed that we had to do that.\u00a0 At the end of the half-hour, we wanted to take all her courses but decided on Kabbalah.\u00a0 My friend knew a little bit about it, and I had never heard about it..but the course description was &#8220;First Kabalistic Principal: Don&#8217;t Believe Anything\u00a0You Read.\u00a0Test Drive the Ideas&#8221;.\u00a0 As one who is\u00a0having a hard time knowing what to believe lately, this jumped out at me.\u00a0 My friend\u00a0and I quickly registered and we attended our first class last night.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Sometimes I am so humbled by the company I am in, and last night was no exception.\u00a0 Everyone introduced themselves and part of the introduction was why did you take the course.\u00a0 It seemed everyone knew about Kabbalah, had had some type of interest in the subject, and when it came to my turn I felt a little shy admitting that I had never heard about it, but loved the teacher&#8217;s enthusiasm, and if she has that much passion about it, it must be something that I\u00a0 would like.\u00a0 The first class was very enlightening, and now that I know a little about it, I\u00a0can hardly wait until next week.\u00a0 \u00a0 I love the hustle and bustle of the College, everyone scurrying to their classes, no one worried \u00a0about exams or homework or even their appearance.\u00a0 No one having to look good, in order to attract prince charming for\u00a0a date \u00a0Saturday night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can you imagine going to college and not worrying about exams, homework, taking courses you only want to and are interested in, being in a class where everyone is happy to be there, with an instructor that is there to share their passion with you.\u00a0\u00a0Well imagine no more.\u00a0\u00a0 I&#8217;m sure you have seen the Lifelong [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-110","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bestvillageblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bestvillageblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bestvillageblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bestvillageblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bestvillageblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=110"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/bestvillageblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":119,"href":"https:\/\/bestvillageblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110\/revisions\/119"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bestvillageblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=110"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bestvillageblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=110"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bestvillageblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=110"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
