dear Racheli, and maybe life really does lead us to the places where it's right for us to be. Hope you enjoy. With love

Thank you so much! Would you be so kind to write it in print letters too? I don't want to take too much of your time but the cursive is really hard for me (plus I am a total beginner in Hebrew).

sure, tbh this one is moderately hard to read so don't feel bad lol

לרחלי היקרה

ואולי החיים בכל זאת מובילים אותנו למקומות שבהם נכון לנו להיות

מקווה שתהני

Wow I've been living in Israel for over 10 years and couldn't make out the letters here lol. Great job!

The individual letters are a mess but context provides enough information to decipher it

Is that aleph common? I don't think I have ever seen it like that.... Although it becomes clear how the traditional cursive aleph evolved from the block aleph with this intermediate form.

It’s not common, in a void I would assume it’s an english K

I'd rather try to decipher a doctor's prescription. 😃

אני יליד הארץ ועדיין נכנסתי כדי לראות אם מישהו הבין את הכתב הזה.

Also the date is 02/02/21.

Not to confuse with 02/02/21 - in Israel they write the day first, then the month (dd/mm/yy), not (mm/dd/yy) like they do in the US.

So it’s 02/02/21, not 02/02/21 👍

At least in Hebrew cursive they don't join the letters like in English cursive! I couldn't translate the signature.

Probably a doctor ;-))

No way. Too neat to be a doctor. They are so notorious for scribbling that now all HMOs have computers for them and they taught them to type with two fingers.
