12.16.16 A little "Possibilities"

YOU COMING TO DINNER?????

It's cold outside - very cold!  

Let's warm up together through song and a yummy dinner.

Shabbat is just better together.

Wishing you all light and joy.

Dwell in Possibility

I dwell in Possibility -
A fairer House than Prose -
More numberous of Windows -
Superior - for Doors - 

Of Chambers as the Cedars - 
Impregnable of eye - 
And for an everlasting Roof
The Gambrels of the Sky - 

Of Bisitors - the fairest - 
For Occupation - This - 
The spreading wide my narrow Hands
To gather Paradise - 

Emily Dickinson

In this season of light, possibilities seem numerous.  It's an opportunity to brainstorm all of them and to then pick, choose one - just one - and take action.  

What is the hope?  What is the desire?  What is the dream?  

What if the hope, the desire and the dream could be reality?

What will each of us choose to make possible?

עֹשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם בִּמְרוֹמָיו, הוּא יַעֲשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם עָלֵיֽנוּ וְעַל כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְאִמְרוּ : אָמֵן

Oseh Shalom bimromav.  Who ya'aseh shalom Aleinu, v'al kol Yisrael, v'al kol yoshvei teivel.  V'imru "Amen".

May the One who creates peace[wholeness] to reign in the high heavens create peace[wholeness] descent on us and on all Israel, and all the inhabitants of the land and let us say: Amen.

We are the ones who create peace[wholeness].  We are the ones who enable change.  We are the ones who make a hope, a desire, a dream, a reality.

Mekor Ha'Chayiim, Source of Life, may we take the stillness of Shabbat and decide which possibility to make a reality.

Shabbat shalom u'mevorach - a blessed and restful Shabbat,
Laurie
