Dear all,
The other night as Ron and I were tucking the babies in for bed, they engaged in the most adorable game, and we were fortunate to capture it on video. You can’t help but laugh and smile as Maya appears and disappears while Eli laughs.
Of course, this sweet game made me think…
It’s so comforting just knowing someone is there.
When we reach out to a friend who is in mourning….
When we deliver a meal to a homebound neighbor….
When we send a care package to our college kid …
When we leave a treat for the mail carrier ….
When we call an old friend ….
Letting people know we are there, for just a moment in time … it just creates a good feeling in a world that could really use more smiles.
With love and shalom,
Rabbi Zach Shapiro
