For those who say good riddance to 5774 And those who weep because endings are too much to bear and beginings too frightening to encounter, For those ready to crack open their hearts to a more compassionate world and eager to roll up their sleeves to end needless suffering, And for those exhausted because it seems were fighting the same damn battles over again; For those eager to dip our apples into honey and hear words of Torah inspire us into being our best, most holy selves, And for those who pray the rabbi might say something inspiring and authentic and heartfelt and relevant; For those dreading the sermon about Israel and For those demanding the sermon about Israel, And for those who find the music soaring and those who experience the liturgy wanting, For those who are certain why they show up and love bending for the Great Aleinu and tremble at the Binding of Isaac and feel history in their guts at the close of Nilah, And for those who arent at all certain why on earth they show up but believe, somewhere in the veins where blood flows to their heart and head that they need to show up for some cosmological, theological, unexplainable reason, For Each of Us~ Shanah Tovah: Abundant Sweetness in the Year Ahead. Time to listen to the shofars call: Why will our presence matter in the year ahead? Lets get to work.
