Twas' the night before Passover.
And all over the neighborhood one could hear the clings and the clangs of house cleaning, even car cleaning. The recycling bins are full, the garbage needs to be emptied more often, all are busy making sure the house is pure and clean and ready for the Festival of Freedom, Passover.

But you are there, you think you are alone, but you are never alone. Someone is watching, waiting for you, they want your money, or more. You are face to face with your worst nightmare.
Now the thoughts come back; someone gave a free self-defense seminar, but you were too busy. You saw advertisements for Krav Maga classes near you, but, well, you know....
And now the preparation time is over, now you are "on" and now you are "it", but what can you do?
You have not done your homework and you are not prepared.
I hear the sounds of cleaning all around me. Every family is preparing for the great holiday, the holiday of freedom. But how many are preparing to defend their own freedom?
and it makes me wonder, it does...
