Welcome back. We need the practice of mindfulness everyday and even more so when there is war and rumors of wars. There is no doubt that there will be times in our life that our world is turned upside down and nothing makes sense. Here is some encouragement to help the battle in the mind to keep us productive and moving in the right direction. It's raw... which is the same letters as war.

I share a story from my time in Israel, and some encouragement to guide us in this dark time.

I wrote this in my journal...its a poem or prayer really.

We danced and the rockets rained down.

Please G-d make us one.

The differences between us has no distinction with the enemy.

The enemy sees us as one.

The enemy came in- surrounds us all around

Help me G-d, with out you I am only one.

Unity, Strength, and light will come from this darkness.

We trust in You, G-d the Mighty One.
