Every year, our sages taught, with the cry of the shofar, the entire universe is reborn.
And so, at that time, with our resolutions and our prayers, we hold an awesome power: To determine what sort of child this newborn year shall be—how it will take its first breaths, how it will struggle to its feet, and how it will carry us through life for the twelve months to come.
In truth, it is not only once a year. At every new moon, in a smaller way, all life is renewed again.
And so too, every morning, we are all reborn from a nighttime taste of death.
And at every moment—in the smallest increment of time—every particle of the universe is projected into being out of absolute nothingness, as it was at the very beginning.
Which is why there is always hope. Because at every moment, life is born anew. And we are the masters of how this new moment will be born.
Shanah Tovah!
GM, 🌻 I am very excited that we have this blessed "hope" that lies Beyond the Veil that before we were [I was] born, we were in the Mind of GD, He Knew us, and ordained that we would "be" included in His Creation and living at this moment! The primal sound of the Shofar knows this very well as it calls to our "soul" to prepare to meet Avienu Malkeinu - Our King!
We are because HE IS!
Wishing everyone, near and far, All the
happiness in the world
Happy Birthday!
