lto light the world

truly beautiful!

I think this is the essence. I have been listening carefully this week to many speakers and many rules about how we should do what we do, to properly observe.It gets hard, and it seems almost too hard, when I feel the essence is love.

I listen because I want to be educated in how other Jews do perceive and observe.

But I think the simplicity, the beauty of this truth, is the over arching rainbow.

Beauty IS truth.

beautiful

Best imagery of the menorah i ever heard of. i should go out and buy one and place it prominently like i have my mezzuza. Touching the mezzuza reminds me to be cheerful and kindly. Too bad i need the reminders, but that's a whole other story.
The menorah will help me focus on 6 others and Unity. Presumptuously i'll consider myself in the middle, lighting it up for others who may be looking in on me. Humbly i will consider myself one of the 6 looking into the middle. There is a time we lead and a time we follow. they can be simultaneous.

Beautiful as usual Chana. Yasher koach and thanks.
