Queridos Amigos, Mis dato de contacto están aqui: http://www.livejournal.com/users/shirad/133220.html
Para mis amigos que solamente hablan Español. Soy mujer sencilla y simple. La mayoria de mis puestos son para amigos y escriben en ambos Español y Ingles. Si ustds quieren leer a mis escritos privados deben de firmar en LiveJournal como amigo mio. Serian ustds muy bienvenidos. Eso es sobre yo: Trabajo en PhD sobre la justicia economica y en particular la moneda social. Tengo un sueño, y no sé si es practical o no. Si yo tenía todo el dinero y tiempo que necesito, y no tenía que trabajar, yo quisiera trabajar por 4 horas por día en bailar, y otra 4 en enseñar a niños y adultos quien quieren trabajar, aprender, con otra maestra que le importa la gente, y otra 4 horas por día en pensar, escribir, y comunicando como mejorar las cosas. Yo quisiera hacer todo esto en un lugar cerca del mar, donde hay gente de muchos lugares del mundo, quien hablan muchos idiomas, y donde hay comunidad. Ahora lo se que es posible, con mucho trabajo, porque casi lo tengo, Gracias a La Vida. Lograre, con ayuda de mis queridos amigos. Ojala que puedo casarme y trabajamos por la paz e igualdad mundial, y tal vez adoptar 2 niños de la calle.

Dear Friends, please note: Some of my more interesting posts are friends-only, so if you are a friend or relative of mine, please register and add me as a friend or drop me a message so that I can add you to my friends list. Yes, I am of very mixed ethnic orgin, identifying primarily as a Woman of Color. I am Cherokee from my great great grandfather, according to my Great Grandmother, African-American by family heritage, and possibly also part French-Canadian. I did become part of the New England Jewish community by choice and pull of Sephardic culture (actually my love for Mediterranean dance, music, food, and family closeness, combined with the fascination of an ancient set of languages, and Havurat Shalom's policy of egalitarian prayer and social activism), and though I strongly disagree with Israeli government policies, I will always honor my promise to stand with the Jewish people. All are created B'Tzelem Elohim, in the Image of the Creator. I am currently working on a PhD in Social Policy focusing on economic justice and alternative currencies in Europe, the US, and Latin America. Shiir (or Shir for short) is my adult name, self-chosen to describe my love of song and poetry. I tend to be idealistic, hard working, to the point, and sometimes too bouncy for my own good. :-) I love everything about the Mediterranean, love to cook, love to dance, love to sing, love to meet new people and learn new things. I lived in the UK (my friends-only contact information), where I am still researching social and public policy. Hope to find and marry a partner who is working for equality and hope for Street Children in this troubled world.

Favorite Book: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s last book "Where Do we go from Here: Chaos or Community?" (1967) should be required reading for ALL (especially Americans...):
http://www.worldcatlibraries.org/oclc/423183&tab=holdings

in which Dr. King forsaw the link between poverty and terrorism before terrorism was recognized as such (before riots were given international expression by the global economy), called for a basic livable income for all, and urged ALL poor to unite in common brotherhood and cooperation.

"Social Justice and progress are the absolute guarantors of riot prevention." P. 22

He creado nueva comunidad para los a quien interesa los Judios Karaitos. Los 'Karaites' no reconozcan a los Rabbis como autoridades, ya que creen que cada persona debe de pensar por su mismo. Me interesaba y ya que no habia ningun comunidad para ellos, la cre'e.

[info]karaites
[info]univhealthcare
[info]grameen
[info]grameenbank


Since there was no community for those interested in the Karaite way of thinking, which I've been quite curious about lately, I've started one: [info]karaites
and

and
http://community.livejournal.com/grameenbank/profile which needs help from others...


Peace,

Major Life Goals:
In addition to simply meeting people with whom I can form a lasting connections, I am seeking to build a network of friends who will form a supportive community of thinking, positive-action honest folk striving to better the world, with whom I can join in those efforts, encourage, and turn to for encouragement, as well as have earnest, safe, fun with, and a wife who shares my values and goals to settle down with and possibly adopt children.

İmportant Philosophies:
My values: <http://www.geocities.com/catalan_athens/values.html>


Egalitarian Judaism


---- from THE JEWISH COALITION "RESPONDING TO HIV/AIDS IN AFRICA"

Introduction:
The Jewish obligation to respond to the AIDS crisis derives from the Jewish values which require that we not stand idly by when others are suffering, that we help heal the sick. Our obligation is also driven by pikuach nefesh, the mitzvah which requires us "to save life" and the mitzvah of bikkur cholim, visiting and tending to the needs of those who are suffering from illness. We are taught that every person is created betzelem elohim - in the image of God- and therefore deserves basic human rights and dignity. As we learn in the Talmud, "Each person, tall or short, deformed or normal, sinner or non-sinner, has a life whose value is infinite, equal to the value of the entire world."
