There is nothing more beautiful than tsnius.
And this is why you don't date somebody in the first year of Baal teshuvah: they're schizophrenic. Tsnius is not just about helping men keep a challenging commandment. It's really about you. It's about self respect and about taking control of the way you are perceived in society. If you want someone to look at your face, don't wear a plunging neckline. Visa versa, don't wear a skirt with a slit up the back. Ironically, these fashion techniques are subconscious ways to guide the eye downwards and upwards toward the most guarded part of the body, the part that even secular society generally agrees should be guarded. -- wait, really? OF COURSE I want to go ride in the tractor. Let me just grab my camera...
And yes, here is where you're going to see pictures. Once I can get home, I'll post all of the amazing photos I took of a small vineyard in the middle of the desert. You'll see Chardonnay, Sauvignon blanc, mary-lous, tractors, refractors, and acres of beautiful grape vines, each planted, nurtured, tea tree oil sprayed, and harvested by the two hands of one brave American who made Aliyah and a beautiful family in Eretz Yisrael. And someone wants to bomb this because? It's like kindergarten: One kid ignores a toy until another kid starts playing with it. It's all hell or bust.
This is Israel like you don't get to see in the pictures. Which is precisely why I took them for you :)
