Never seen it, never will

I saw Sophie's Choice in May of 1983 in a theater in Jerusalem. The movie was subtitled in Hebrew, and there were Holocaust survivors in the theater with me watching the film. I went to Yad Vashem later that week. I sobbed, I journaled, I read, I studied, I talked with my professor, I raised my fist at God. Why, why, why??? And eventually, with the help of my wonderful professor, Kalman Bland, I had a breakthrough, an "aha" moment, an epiphany. It was a powerful experience. And that process, I would argue, is what a true liberal arts education is all about.

So, what was your enlightenment?
If you don't want to write it, I understand. These things can tend to be very long-winded and many times, too personal.

I didn't write it down because some might view it as too PPB. And that's okay.

The process was as important to me as the breakthrough.
