During Elul, I want to revise the continuum on which I judge my actions and my memories. Now I’m like Yelp, all 1-star or 5-star reviews. Rabbi Braunig asked Elul Writers to think about things we’re willing to be “just ok” with. I want to start aiming at the middle.

Rosh Hashanah family picnic; eating outdoors like Sukkot, but a big backyard instead of a small booth. Brisket sandwiches, potato salad, a circular Challah made from scratch. Singing along with the service while "muted", but we hear birds singing as the backup choir. And...100 fewer usher positions to fill!

A spacecraft bound for another planet inevitably needs a course correction so it can fall into orbit around the planet and land on the surface. Likewise, embodied souls need occasional course corrections to fulfill their potential. May Elul provide some of the course corrections you need to make it so

Does brisket come that small? A whole kugel for 3? And what about the cakes? So much leftover to pick at, little by little.  Maybe this year it’s a different menu, honoring the planet, respecting our bodies as well as tradition. Acknowledging a different year. Still, apples and sweet honey.
