Wishing you a healthy and sweet New Year. Isn’t good health the ultimate wish? We welcome the Days of Awe and the New Year 5782. In celebration of defining moments and milestones in our lives, we are grateful for new possibilities and anticipated joys. We feel so close to our loved ones yet continue to remain physically distant due to COVID related variants, seasonal flus, and the coming cold season. The holidays suggest we use each meaningful moment for prayer to reflect on our year, letting go of the losses and disappointments and finding gratitude for goodness with hope for change. And I ask myself regularly, how can we make a positive difference for ourselves and for those we care about?
