A Blessing For The New Year...
Happy Rosh Hashanah, Happy Autumn...
As we move into autumn and approach the Jewish New Year, I like to reflect on my past behavior and what I can do to be better human being in the year ahead. One of my favorite symbols is the hamsa which represents protection. The hamsa prayer is something that is not only a blessing for each of us, but to me it is a calling of how we should treat and protect others. Let no sadness come to their hearts, let no trouble come to their arms, let no conflict come to their eyes and behave in a way that lets their souls be filled with joy and peace. In a world so chaotic and divisive right now, we can all strive to be kinder and nicer to everyone around us each and every day. I hope you all have a wonderful and sweet socially distant holiday this weekend.
