Personame’s home

Im watching over the internet one of the best things I had ever experienced on Israeli TV. its called mechoobarot , or connected , attached if you’d like . in our modern world of loneliness in front of  computer screens we are somehow attached to  our  emotions too, connecting with the outer world better cause we get the outer world staring at our eyes inches away and telling to our faces everything they wouldn’t tell us standing on a Queue in Sainsbury .

the story line follow 5 women of  different ages, preferences, Ideals  and statuses sharing  their everyday life in what seem to be their true and extremely authentic exposure of the challenges they have as women, lovers ,  daughters , mothers, friends, very honest people.yes its a girls kinda film. but brilliantly edited and includes many sentences and conversations that manage not to find the cliche. I feel a lot when watching this. I  cry  a bit, smile, think, wish, even feel that Im falling in love with some of them who  normally I would consider as  complete strangers, or even strangers that I cant relate to.

Like Eyal.  Miri’s husband who is a celebrity Chef with a serious pose of self love and admiration which  I made fun of in the past. didn’t like those patronizing people with pompous talk that average people don’t get and intellectual people despise when comes from a cook. but mostly I didn’t really understand why he  had to talk in the first place. just make flavors and smells and shut up.  people called him insane and  weird and made nasty remarks when reading his pretentious life philosophies on tomatoes . I tasted his food in my early 20ies when I discovered I love the good life and it was  excellent I  admit. the  resteurant name Ocean was one of those places you only go  on your birthday if you happen to have friends in Jerusalen that like that good life  too. I was Naive back than and most of my memories where excellent before my heart was broken.

I started reading his new age cuisine philosophy again when Miri and him started a joint column that  included his lovely recipes, some of  his strange philosophies that were spiced with her kind and loving and healthy writing. I felt that I  want to cook again. to create flavors to my  many words. be a  bit more earthy slicing an English  tomato and thinking  maybe someone will love me  like they love each other.

now thanks to Merav who kindly and smartly gave me a peep in this TV project I discover through his wife’s camera his beautiful  smile when falling in love with her every minute of the day they spend together. how can you not fall in love with her I wonder loudly. reamrkbly talented people should fall in love with like wise as well , Miri is a genius of human thoughts. She makes cliches into poetic thoughts, plants it in the heads of the people who read or watch her and makes us better. I want to be like her when i grow up. on the episode I watched today, she shares a thought of how she becomes prettier through Eyal’s lenses.  It’s the way he looks at her and captures an image of beauty that was once his own private image through his own pupil and now its an image shared by  thousands.

I  thought of  Joe and how beautiful I was in the photos he took of me, and how little I respected that as I  felt so not pretty at that time and lonely without Guy around me to make me beautiful with no mirrors or lenses, just 2  people reflecting love . and how I look in the last photo shoot in a London or Paris park, when you looked at  me as your muse, your  lover  and healer and I felt desired but  scared.  I like myself watching the mirror more and more, whats wrong with looking through yours  ? maybe I should take a better look at those photos again and start appreciating what I have.
