This week will be catch as catch can.  I’ll indulge myself in talking about religion and allowing myself sentimental musings (strictly verboten during the rest of the year as all of you who know me know…) I will also try and focus on the positive, which really isn’t restricted to the week between years, although too often it’s slipping my mind. Remind me!

On this third day of Hanukah, here is a message from a woman rabbi who gets it right. The last sentences of her essay:

We will need to be brave. We will need to resist.

We will have to make the miracle ourselves.
