Hanukkah Night 8: We light all the candles! I am sad to see Hanukkah 2024 end. The lights of the menorah have increased every night. My social media feeds are filled up with light. The unique menorahs, lit by diverse families from around the world are amazingly joyful. This Hanukkah with its sparkling light has …
My beloved mom, Marlene Marks Kornick z”l has been gone for 3 months now & today my grief hit me hard. Today on the first day of this new year, my tears flowed like a waterfall. Perhaps it was being on break – which meant that the busyness of my life settled down and the …
The spontaneous dancing in the streets that erupted all over the US yesterday on Shabbat, of all days, spoke volumes. Even in the midst of celebration, there is an acknowledgment of having to hold multiple realities. Thank God the majority of us voted for empathy, decency, a belief in science, and most of all, for …
