Ofra Haza - Kaddish

YouTube
#Meyer_Habib, ancien député des #Français établis en #Turquie, #Italie, #Grèce ou encore #Chypre, nous parle de l’armée #Israélienne, de ses frères #Kaddish (Ka-ké-dine), du peuple Juif, de la #Torah, du #Cachrout, de shabbat et de la kippa sur la tête.

Today is my #memoir's 4th birthday. It wasn't until I wrote the preface that I realized writing the #book was my way of sitting #shiva & saying #kaddish for my father who died of early-onset #Alzheimer's. Dr. Bruce Miller, #neurologist @ #UCSF, sat shiva w/me. I will be eternally grateful.

Acknowledging that I'll never recover from how my father died has strangely liberated me to remember him (w/ and w/o the disease- I had forgotten the latter) & help others.

Finding the Right Words

A Story of Literature, Grief, and the Brain

While I'm at it I'd like to mention that I belong to a small #minyan that meets Sun-Thu at 6PM Pacific on Zoom. During the summer we do both minḥa and ma'ariv; when the days are shorter we only do ma'ariv. Usually one of us gives a short d'var #torah. And, for what it's worth, I lead either minḥa or ma'ariv every Tuesday.

As you may have guessed from my previous post, we use the Conservative siddur and liturgy. The minyan is a project of the Jewish Collaborative of Orange County (CA), which my wife helped found and where she used to work.

The minyan is great for those saying #kaddish, for East Coasters for whom a late ma'ariv is more convenient, and for anybody who'd like to participate more in davening but doesn't really get the opportunity. We have people join us from all over the country, though on any given evening we'll have 10-15 participants.

If you're interested, PM me and I'll be happy to share the details. 2/2

If you need an online place to say Kaddish for your loved ones, join the Nechamah Minyan.

Wanting to mourn/needing to resist:

"Political grief . . . reflects the feeling that your worldview or political beliefs — what we think is right vs. wrong, or morally valid — is under attack." An individual "may be mourning potential losses of [their] own rights and economic stability, as well as worried about the impact it might have on reproductive rights and public health."

Surviving "political grief": You're not alone, and there is a path forward

Collective mourning at this four-year horror show is real, and highly understandable. But we're not helpless

The best English translation I could find.

Almighty and everlasting God, whose will it is to restore all things in thy well-beloved Son, the King of kings and Lord of lords: Mercifully grant that the peoples of the earth, divided and enslaved by sin, may be freed and brought together under his most gracious rule; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.”
