Chartering Her Own Path: My Mother’s Final Hours

I spent my first Shabbas in Sloan Kettering Hospital on March 2nd. Just a week earlier, my parents had hosted a large Purim celebration for family and friends. My mother, dressed in surgeon’s scrubs an Israeli doctor had given her when she took my father for a procedure at NYU Medical Center, and my father dressed as the “Laughing King,” entertained our twenty plus guests unaware of the devastation about to begin.

Tu B’Av: What Did the Beautiful Ones Say?

On the 15th of Av young men and women would meet in the vineyards of Jerusalem for the purpose of finding their soul-mate. The beautiful girls among them would declare that a young man aught set his eyes to beauty alone. The Talmud does not censure them, even mildly. But surely, as Scripture states, “Charm is false and beauty has no substance”?!

Comfort Ye, Comfort Ye: Opening Our Eyes to the Bigger Picture

What a difference a week can make! Last Shabbos was Shabbos Chazon, the height of the Three Week period of mourning. On Shabbos Chazon we read the third of the three Haftorah’s of rebuke, in which the prophet Yishayahu forewarns about the impending disaster that was about to befall the Jewish people as a result of their sins. Yet this Shabbos, only one week after Shabbos Chazon and a mere few of days after Tisha B’Av, the mood is drastically altered.

According to Kabbala the essence of life is based on Rutzo and Shuv, which translates into “To and fro” (literally, “Running and returning”). The latter refers to a rhythmic motion that permeates man’s entire being; physically, emotionally and spiritually, i.e., one’s service of the Almighty.
