Jewish community and the artistic impulse from a Jewish artist’s point of view

So I’m driving home and listening to Judaism Unbound, as I’m wont to do. The latest episode pokes around the territory of the place of the arts and the artistic impulse in shaping Torah…

Jewish Poetry Project Pride Pack - Ben Yehuda Press

Ben Yehuda Press
This week we enter into the Torah portion Naso which means to lift, to carry.
Ask yourself in this moment:
How can I lift up someone
How can I be mindful of the brokenness I carry
How do I draw close to the Divine and lift up holiness

PSA, if someone asks you for contact info (e.g. a phone number) of someone you know, the correct response is "I can't give that to you, but I can give them yours".

It's efficient and adds no round-trips, it's privacy friendly, it's non-awkward and it's social engineering resistant. It's a universally good rule.

And the corollary, of course: Don't ask someone for another person's contact info - ask them to pass on yours.
