The end of the secular year is fast approaching and so, once again, we have the opportunity to take stock of what has happened in the past 12 months and think about what 2014 might look like…. What new idea or attitude do you want to embrace in the new year? What do you want to make happen for someone you love? What do you want to contribute to your family? Your community? Our planet? I know that it is easy to get caught up the whirlwind of the holiday season, but don’t forget to take a few minutes over Shabbat to think about these important questions. 2014 will be here before you know it and with it, you have the opportunity to begin again. What will you do with this fresh start?
Wishing you all a Shabbat filled with peace, joy and the opportunity for self-reflection!
