So often, the world is far from bounteous, but, when I changed my behavior, I felt something beautiful.
For thirteen years I never knew not to wear a tallis.
Let us know the generousness of wild, abiding and unbounded love.
Often we focus in Elul on what we did wrong,
sometimes we need to focus on what we didn’t do,
sometimes we need to promise to do more,
not to do "better" at what we already know
let those familiar things turn numb.
An astonishing fire blazes within. You must spill forth this light, or be consumed from inside. This is the sacred act of spark extraction. This is returning to the knowing in your bones.
Adamantine insistence, persistence, this existence.
Together we keep walking.
