As I boarded the plane to Israel in the summer of 2002 for my first year of rabbinical school at HUC in Jerusalem, my mother said, "Please, just don't meet an Israeli."

From our first conversation, he understood that I was studying to be a rabbi, and I understood that he wanted to live only in Israel.
