What is it?

What is it?

What is it? It’s my favorite line from the story of the Israelites wandering in the wilderness. How quickly they forget that they were slaves in Egypt. That life was hard. They’re longing for the meat and the melons and the fresh baked bread they had there. And they do what we do, right. They complain. They whine. They murmur against Moses. You brought us out here to die. We detest, we despise this miserable desert food, like cactus soup every meal. Take us back to the good old days!
