I knew it was bound to happen. I was just waiting for it, really.
As staff members of the Baha'i World Centre, we have the special privilege of visiting each Holy Place in Haifa and Akka once in a year. And if you can't make it the day you've scheduled your visit, too bad, no changes made. Considering most Baha'is will only visit these places once in a lifetime, during pilgrimage, that's not too much to ask of us staffers.
And I've visited every holy place now - some several times.
Except, that is, the House of Abdullah Pasha, a residence of Baha'u'llah's family for some time in Akka.
Not once. Every single year something happens to keep me from it.
Year one: a migraine that sent me to the ER (it was stupid - I'll never do that again)
Year two: we were visiting Mark's family in Spain
Year three ... this year: my dear, dear friend Takhmina is getting married. Not only that day, but that hour. Can you believe it? Well, heheh, I can. (Takhmina is the one who taught me the Kazakh waltz that I performed a year or so ago, Kua bol. And no, I didn't misspell her name, she changed the transliteration of her name recently.)
Some people have all the luck! :-)
Baha'i greetings from Portugal.
Hey, Mara! Well, you've been luckier than most already. I don't remember the House of Abdullah Pasha from any of the stories we learned in Sunday school. Is it important?
Thanks, I learned a lot for myself.
Is this page optimized for the new Explore9? Its giving me some issues.
