(This is a sermon I gave in November of 2008 at the Women of Reform Judaism Biennial convention, held in Seattle Washington.  I’m posting it today because this explains, in part, why I felt called to become a rabbi at age 47.  This is part of my life’s journey.  In this week’s Journey of the Soul: Making the Omer …

Â For example, we started with Modah/Modeh Ani, which means “Grateful/Thankful am I” and offered a brief …
There’s something about really bad weather (like blizzards) that are so freeing. No matter what your plans are, your meetings and appointments, if you can’t get out of the driveway, you have to stay put. You are forced to “stay.”  You can’t will yourself forward when the Big Snow says, “I don’t think so.” (I …
