Eh, I decided to save my break for another time so I can share with you something that I wrote for Shavuos.
Going Up
Looking up and looking all around
He is everywhere.
Larger than life
And encompassing the universe.
We walk around as days go by
Not noticing until later a certain need.
What is it?
We search and search
And finally find it.
Our neshama is crying out to be
Connected to Him.
The week ends and Shabbos comes.
We pray, reaching up
To that world that's beyond.
And gather at home with
Family and friends.
Our neshama says,
"Now that's what I'm talking about!"
Our journey continues
As we go further.
Choosing to learn and practice about
Guarding our tounge from gossip.
It is so challenging, yet so
Internally rewarding.
And our journey keeps continuing
As we go up the ladder of life.
Thank you Hashem for the Torah
That's helps us connect to you.

He is good to us, isnt He? :)
chag sameach!
FG, you're welcome. Have a good one also
Mookie, He is :)
There are so many things to be thankful for. Both small and big.
And even when things are tough, it's for a good reason. We don't know the reason, but still need to have emunah because without it, there's nothing to hang on to.
Have a good yom tov.
chag kasher v'sameach!!:)
