Dear Lovely Peeps,
Not what I usually post, but I am thinking of a few of you right now.
For anyone who may need this, know I am wishing you a better morning and more light. 🕯️
The Longest Night
by Rabbi Rachel Barenblat
(aka The Velveteen Rabbi)
We all tell ourselves stories
about grief to come.
Anticipating the dark
we think, how can I live
without the sun I turn toward?
We wrest what gifts we can
from the dying days.
One morning we wake
and the doorway we most dreaded
is behind us.
The ice may not recede
for months to come
but day by day
may there be more light.
