Now I understand!
Now I know why, in 5768, everything is finally falling into place in my spiritual life! The time is right.

Wishing those in Yerushalayim Shabbat's Blessings
Would it be in the right timing in sync with divine energy to sing and pray for blessings for Yerushalyim's sons and daughters of G-d at their time of seventh day sunset even though I am not in that locale?
