Hebrew by InbalSusan sent me this for Yom Kippur and I had to share it with you.
She wrote in perfect Hebrew:
"Dear Inbal
Easy fasting
May you be sealed in the book of life (gmar chatimah tovah)
Much love and prayers
Susan"
This is what it's all about 💙
On Yom Kippur, we stand between who we were and who we’re becoming.
Not perfection, but truth: seeing where we missed the mark, asking forgiveness, and finding the courage to grow.
Fasting brings clarity, reminding us what truly matters.
May this day guide you to honest reflection, change, and compassion.

Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.
It begins at sundown on Wednesday, October 1st and continues through nightfall on Thursday, October 2nd.
This is your guide to Yom Kippur.
To those of you fasting — may your fast be meaningful and easy.
To those of you not fasting — may you find connection in other ways.
This isn’t a race. Transformation takes time — not 10 days, not a deadline.
The High Holidays call us inward: reflect, repent, commit. But lasting change is slow, gentle, step by step.
So if you’re overwhelmed — pause. Breathe. Let Shabbat remind you that rest is holy, presence is enough, and you have time.
Shabat Shalom 💙

James M Branum - יעקב מתתיהו ☮I'm sharing my annual Humanistic blowing of the shofar video for anyone who hasn't had the chance to hear #shofar during his month of Elul (the Jewish month of preparation for the High Holidays)
Im dedicating this to all who are about the work of Tikun Olam (world repair), but especially to my dear friends at The Spinoza Havurah and all of my friends from Judaism Unbound and the Unyeshiva.

The Water Pouring Ritual on Hoshana Rabbah is a ritual we can reclaim today - blowing the shofar and pouring a water libation this coming Tuesday after sundown.
Mishnah Sukkah 5:5 ...and three [shofar blasts] for the filling of the vessel with water, as described in the sequence of the ritual of drawing the water for the water libation (48b); and three when pouring the water libation upon the altar...
Taanit 2b:4 Just as Lulav is by day, so too mentioning [rain] is by day, Or maybe from the pouring of the water?...Just as the pouring of the water is by night, as the master says "And their Karbon Mincha and their libations' is even at night" so too mentioning [rain] can be at night...
The original purpose of the ritual was to ask for rains in the appropriate agriculture times for the new year. Even if you don't garden, the ritual can have spiritual significance.
What is water to you? What does it represent? What is your relationship to water?
