These doors are not like the doors? Flash Gordon? opened and saw an angry? Emperor Ming The Merciless? waiting with his fierce army. They are also not like the doors in a popular game show, where when you open one door you might find a shiny new car, or a piece of coal. When I was a child and I passed from one grade to the next, I had a bittersweet feeling. While I was anxious to grow and learn, I felt that I was leaving a comfortable place and going into uncharted waters. Now I am in a place just like all my fiends and am living by myself. I have found many kind people who have talked to me and included me. Also the JCC has been a place of comfort.
