But Adam threw over Lilith for Eve. Why? Because Lilith wanted to ride cowgirl every now and again. Voice her opinion. Be his partner. Not be his mommy and hold his hand and tell him everything was alright. Hang on every word that spewed from his pie hole.
For that she got demonized and became known as the mother of monsters/demons. SMH In my own opinion. I would have chosen Lilith. She might have been a lot of things. But she knew better than to listen to a snake. That screwed up a deal that even she had a better sense to not do.
But then that is what happens when a guy is terrified of a strong woman who speaks her mind and wants to stand at her man’s side. Not behind or in front. He goes and finds some empty headed bobble head and the end result is almost the same.
Also FYI I studied at a seminary school before having to drop out due to finances. The church org folded up its tent and disappeared. I was informed that I could stay if I could pony up the money. That was not going to happen. So I packed what little had and hopped a freight train to somewhere else. It was one of those near misses of getting off the streets and stop being homeless.
I landed back in California and found work at a small community theater as a stage hand/grip. Another tale of a near miss. That one hurt the most though. As I enjoy the theater. Working to make the magic happen for the audience was something that I enjoyed.
I am talking about live theater.. Far different experience than a cinema or movie theater. If you have never been part of a community theater. Really wanting to experience some of the craziest things. Meet people that live and breath acting on a live stage. I would recommend working a season in a community theater.
As far as Lilith goes. It really marks the time when the semitic tribes were moving away from a more matriarchal society and moving towards the patriarchal. A lot of Tanakh and Toric law still has echoes of that matriarchy. Especially in regards to how it is through the mother line that often counts more, than the father’s line in a lot of the Toric laws.
Very diffrent than movie theater for sure. I don’t think I would ever work for live theater with stage fright annd very shy. Most never been in front of live audience and not interested in stagehand work. That is why I hide away in projector room
I will read more on that. I’m not even sure she existed as a woman or demon or both. Too many years in the past make stories unrelaible more like myth and we missing many pieces of huge puzzle.
I worked a stagehand/grip. Never tread the boards myself. Helped build props, background, and set the stage for actors. Even got to work a light once. Antiques from the 1930’s or 40’s.
In the community theater that I was at. We all became a small community. When someone tumbled to the realization that I was homeless. One of people insisted that I sleep at his place. After the place shut down a little early for the season. The last production bombed hard. I stayed for another week and half. Then quietly left one morning. As I was not about to overstay my welcome. He was struggling to find work and well he did not need me there making it any harder.
I did try to find a job, but this was the 1980’s jobs were a hit and miss to begin with and I did not have reliable transportation. If you have ever tried the L.A. public transit system. The most polite thing I can say is that you will see some of the most interesting people. Buses ran on a schedule that was more of a suggestion than a reality.

I guess there’s a story behind the Pepsi Cola bottles and billboard here… also, obviously there’s a kind of traditional dress for the girls, with those white aprons(?).
Photograph: wedding of Ms. Julia Parmly and Mr. Frederick Billings, NYC, 1862. Here we can see the bride in a stripped dress holding hands with her husband. Behind them, the bride’s parents and to the right of the groom there are his sister and her husband. Unfortunately we don’t know what they were looking at off the frame.
At first my reaction was – no way was that a river delta (because why are there buildings in there?). But upon looking at maps, it does indeed appear to be a river delta.
Also, found this on a Bulgarian site:
Borshosh has ordered a full review of construction permits issued for the resort complexes to determine whether any of the developments might have contributed to the disaster. “We still do not have such information, but once inspections by the regional governor and the Regional Directorate for National and Regional Inspection are complete, we will know whether this was solely a severe natural disaster or whether inadequate local governance played a role,” he said.
