Description
One of the things I appreciate about transitional moments is that they allow me to reset and re-visit the people, places, ideas, values, and priorities that can enhance my life. The next few months are going to be busy and exciting for me. I get to lead High Holy Day services and look out at real people instead of just a video camera. My oldest daughter is starting high school. My middle daughter will become a bat mitzvah in October. The demands on my time seem to increase daily and yet, I know I can return to the five principles laid out in this week’s Torah portion to guide me, to strengthen me, to inspire me. Reverence, action, love, service, and guardianship – these are the concepts that I will keep close to my heart in the coming days, weeks, and months.Each week, a member of the clergy offers their personal perspective on a topic of their choice, such as the week's Torah portion, a Jewish holiday, ritual, custom, or history.
