I’m grateful that I am Jewish. I’ve always felt this way, always, even though, as you know, I am not observant or even very knowledgeable about Torah and so many traditions. But I have always felt connected to something larger than myself which is very special to me. And I have you - I’m thankful for all you have taught me. I am thankful that you are on this wonderful Jewish journey. It makes me proud. I’m thankful I brought you into this world (oh and your brother too!)
The Shabbat Drop is what I am thankful for because I love the journey she took to learn more about why Jews do certain things for Shabbos.
I have been going to Synagogue here and there is a Bar Mitzvah tonight. Jewish love is real.
:)) Thank you for reading and I hope you had a nice Shabbat and weekend!
As a person who has trouble praying - and that is an understatement: I value -
My Peoples’ Prayer Book: Traditional Prayers, Modern Commentaries. Vol I
The Sh’ma and It’s Blessings
by Lawrence A. Hoffman
I think of that grouping as a mother and her children.
I’ve wanted to read the Shema book! Thanks Shabbat Shalom
I’m grateful for media that reminds me about the resilience of the jewish community when I’m feeling down!
Grateful? let me count the ways.....

I can bring that book to you at Thanksgiving.
If you want.
I'm okay, I'm overwhelmed with books right now but thanks! Can't wait to see you and catch up.
