Spiritual Awakening
"There is a Chinese proverb that says: "If we do not change our direction, we will end up where we are headed".
As Jews we are presented with complex challenges in maintaining a strong identity. Our Jewish state of mind must be willing to be illuminated with time while keeping our beautiful traditions and rich culture alive.
Can we move beyond the state of victimization? Can we direct our pain toward Tikkun Olam instead of detachment from Community, Torah and worse G-d?
Unless we do, we may become extinct throughout the diaspora. G-d forbid! We must never forget the injustices of the Holocaust, the Spanish inquisition and other historical antisemitic abuses nonetheless memory must be used to pave a better way for the future.
We are the people chosen to distribute Torah light. While it does not make us better than anyone else, it makes us duty bound to stay attached to our purpose as Jews.
GOOD NEWS
Something is happening globally. There is a harmonic sound from heaven stirring Jewish Souls all over the world.. We are everywhere and our blood is calling us home. This inner unrest traveling throughout the diaspora is all part of the fulfillment of prophecy.
