How to Stop Being So ‘Me’ Focused

B"H

Parenting is a journey of love, growth, and humility. 

As a parent of 3.5 years, I’ve learned to embrace the transition from being the center of my world to finding joy and purpose in watching my children grow. 

Judaism’s wisdom reminds us to start each day with gratitude and humility

Let’s focus on serving Hashem because the world is not about us it’s about serving our creator and others.

How to Carry Chanukah With Us Beyond the 8 Lights

B"H

A mitzvah is a precious opportunity to draw closer to Hashem, our own souls, and those around us.

Yet, a mitzvah truly shines when illuminated by the light of Torah.

The more we learn about the reasons and deeper meanings behind the mitzvot, the more the light and beauty of our actions increases. 

So Chanuka teaches us to be bright to be light ✨

Let’s carry this message with us throughout the year!

Loving Others for the Light of Who They Are

Chanukah candles remind us of a profound truth: just as we appreciate their light without expecting anything in return, we can learn to value people simply for who they are.

Every soul is a spark of Hashem, intrinsically worthy and deserving of unconditional love. Let’s bring more closeness, connection, and appreciation into the world.

The Real Meaning of the Menorah

B"H

✨ If your chanukiya is shining brightly in your home today, you’re making a powerful statement about who you are.

The heroism of the Maccabees wasn’t just about keeping the flame of the Jewish people alive—it was about reminding us of our mission.

Every Jewish home is a microcosm of the Temple, a beacon of light meant to illuminate the world. 🕎

So as your candles burn, let their glow inspire you to shine your unique light, spreading warmth, faith, and hope far and wide.

Being a Maccabee is Being Grateful

The spirit of gratitude we cultivate during Chanukah is something we’re meant to carry with us throughout the entire year.

Rabbi Nachman teaches that these days of gratitude give us a glimpse of the world to come. When we allow ourselves to truly feel gratitude deep within our souls, we draw closer to Hashem in a profound and personal way.

The more we practice this, the more we’ll feel surrounded by divine light—a light that not only uplifts us but radiates out to those around us.

Let’s embrace these 8 days and beyond as a time to thank Hashem for His endless blessings.

Wishing you a joyful and light-filled Chanukah! 🕎✨

The Jewish Encounter with Greek Life

Antiochus sought to impose a worldview where the physical world was disconnected from any divine or spiritual purpose. 

To him, there was no room for the idea that the material and spiritual are interconnected-that the physical world itself reflects the infinite light of Hashem ✨.

The Jewish story stands in direct opposition to this notion. 

It is a story of bridging the seen and unseen, of recognizing that the source of all existence is transcendent yet present in every detail of creation. 

We see this so clearly in the way Judaism emphasizes sanctifying the physical, transforming mundane actions into acts of divine connection and meaning.

Chanukah reminds us that light, even a small flicker, has the power to illuminate profound truths: 

that the physical world isn’t separate from Hashem’s light but is an expression of it. 

This is our story, and it continues to shine through the ages

Should Jews Hide Their Chanukah Candles?

B"H

**It is deeply sad when the darkness of Jewish hate leads to the hiding of Jewish light. Regardless of how public we are with our Judaism, we must continue to shine our light, at least for ourselves and our families. **

We must keep the Aish Tamid, the eternal flame burning 🔥**. **

Shabbat Shalom
