tikva knows everyone. Or certainly nearly everyone. And everyone knows how wonderful she is, but I'm going to tell you anyway.
First,
tikva is extremely friendly. She's bouncy, energetic and enthusiastic in a way that really lights up a room when she's in it. If I had a club and I wanted people to feel welcome in the club, I would have
tikva act as the greeter, because you just can't help feeling like you're where you belong when you're with her.
tikva is adventurous and brave -- she's willing to take risks and she likes to try new things.
She's also thoughtful. When I want to get a clearly considered opinion of some issue, asking
tikva is often a good bet.
These are some few of the many reasons that
tikva rocks. If you want to know her better (and why wouldn't you?) her journal is often entertaining, too :)
