A Moment in Time: “We’re All in the Same Boat”

[additional-authors]
July 10, 2020
Dear all,
When the pandemic began, my sister arranged for my participation through Gotham Group to share my Children’s book, “We’re All in the Same Boat” (Putnam, 2008) on their newly formed youtube channel, “Gotham Reads.” The message of the story reflects the reality of today: it’s no fun to be quarantined for months on end, so we have an opportunity to make the best of our circumstance.
The pandemic is painful. The quarantine is nerve-wrecking. The economy is hurting. The lack of being able to hug people is sad, really sad. But it’s still important to take a moment in time each day to harness goodness, take note of miracles, and embrace our blessings.
With love and shalom,
Rabbi Zach Shapiro
