Dear all,
This week, we will close the door on our family home in Boston for the last time. 45 years ago, my parents bought this house and transformed it into a home through memories, values, and love.
Before we leave, we want to bury a time capsule. As you can see, it’s small. How do you fit 45 years of memory into this canister?
Here’s where I need your advice. What would you put in it to honor this moment in time?
Let me know! In the meantime, I offer this blessing to my family:
Baruch Atah Adonai/ Blessed are You, Adonai, who guides us on our journey.
With love and Shalom,
Rabbi Zach Shapiro
