After a week in Portugal, surrounded by a lot of nature and pastoral quiet, this past weekend Alina Levy decided to share with the surfers exposed to her content the insights she reached regarding her choice to live in Israel. In the same breath, she spoke about disagreements between her and her partner and the father of her eldest child on the matter.
"Me and Durke (her partner and the father of her eldest child; They don't agree at all on the way we deal with the situation in Israel," Levy declared at the beginning of her remarks, which were presented on a joint photo of her family in its full composition. "I feel like I've discovered again that I live in an abusive family (the state) and everyone asks me to close my eyes and shut up because it's a 'family.'

"And for Dor, he sees the picture clearly, but it doesn't feel dramatic for him to take concrete action on the subject. He feels that he is happy in Israel," she explained.
In another story, she shared her feelings about the gap between her and her partner. "It's a critical disagreement and it was terrifying to realize how different our needs are now, but we're learning to form a common vision as a family and respect each other's needs, even though they're so different," she said.

It should be recalled that only at the beginning of the month, Levy announced her desire to continue the conversion process that she began several years ago and was cut short by the Rabbinate. "In these days of broken hearts, even though I always knew, it became brighter than ever – my soul is Jewish. I chose to return to my conversion process, this time from a place much more connected to the truth of my soul, to the belonging of my soul because the horror that our country is going through made me realize how much I feel part of Judaism."
