I know I say a lot of negative things in my blog. It isn't that I am a negative person. Anyone who knows me will tell you I am sickeningly optimistic. The thing is, despite my optimism I do have a streak of Machiavellian realism. I don't want to ignore the bad and only see the good. I believe in acknowledging problems. After all, acceptance is the first step to recovery.

The aliyah process is not fun. True, it is much easier than the citizenship process for basically any other country in the world. And yes, they do give you more benefits for moving there than any other country. That doesn't change the fact though that it is a miserable process that could be made easier.

I love Israel and I cannot wait to get there. I am just think the aliyah process could use a makeover.
