On Rosh Hashanah, the shevarim/teruah blasts echo our tears and trembling, the awareness of how far we sometimes feel from Hashem and from who we’re meant to be.

But, as Ezra reminds us, those tears aren’t despair. They’re a yearning-a call to rise higher and reconnect.

Then comes the tekiyah—strong, whole, joyful. It celebrates the gift of Torah and the privilege to serve Hashem with gladness.

Rosh Hashanah holds both emotions: brokenness and joy, awe and hope.

It’s a day to feel it all…and to choose reconnection.

The Shema calls us to love God with all our heart, soul, and might, our whole selves.

Yaakov vs. Esav reminds us: life isn’t about “most,” it’s about all-ness.

As the High Holidays approach, teshuva isn’t about piling on more.

It’s about loving fully with what’s already in our hands. ✨

Feeling truly loved and supported is more than a nice to have it’s a spiritual need. 💛

Judaism calls this deveikut, deep connection to God and to each other.

As Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur approach, we might feel distant or unsure.

But these days remind us of God’s endless compassion and invite us to bring that same care into our own relationships. ✨

How do you nurture that sense of loving connection in your life?

We need to learn how to speak again, how to talk again, how to live and love again. I want to share a spiritual perspective on what is happening in the world and in the digital world, which is impacting every single one of us.

Sending so much love and comfort to Charlie’s family. May his memory be for a blessing.

Standing before Takakkaw Falls, Canada’s second-highest waterfall, you can feel the power of creation in motion.

The Torah speaks of rivers clapping and praising God, reminders of Eden, and of Torah flowing into the world like life-giving water.

Just as the river flows from its divine source, we’re called to let that flow inspire us, bringing goodness, connection, and light wherever we go. ✨

In the Torah, Moshe, Aharon, Nadav, Avihu, and the elders were granted a rare vision of Hashem.

They saw a sapphire-like stone, the same sky-blue shade as techelet, the thread on our tzitzit that mirrors the heavens and Hashem’s throne.

That same breathtaking blue still shines in our world today.

May we always notice these reminders of Hashem’s presence in the beauty around us. ✨

In Hebrew, the word Shema means “to listen.”

When we truly listen, we allow others to feel seen, valued, and understood.

That’s why our tradition places so much emphasis on listening, just as God listens to our prayers, we’re called to listen to each other’s stories, struggles, and yearnings.
