I love the Jewish cycles of the year. As I approach the Jewish New Year, I fully realize my humanness which acknowledges and accepts how I have at times deviated from my true self..........and that I have another opportunity to grow, to strive, and to transform. I use the practice of Hitbodedut to regularly go to a quiet place to talk with God, to be genuinely vulnerable, to challenge myself to be the best version of myself.

Renewal will come. As the calendar turns, and my thoughts turn to the annual rhythms of the holidays, I feel deeply how off-beat everything is now. But I have hope and know that the next moment is not this moment, renewal will come, and we will return again. L’shanna tovah!

My high school ambitions come to a halt. A different experience, unfair. Old friendships fade as new ones take their place. Striving for greatness, infusion brings me up short. IV, hospital, nurse. In this new beginning, I strive to radiate love and kindness to those who need it the most.

Jewish and Buddhist practices help me live meaningfully through crisis and the unknowns. How to become a more peaceful “warrior”, the most holy version of myself? My teshuvah means acquiring ometz lev (a courageous heart), integrating my thinking and working for just causes to contribute to the radical changes that are needed in our world.
