  6. I Used to Know How to Be Slow

    A birthday trip to a sleepy beach town, a skill | lost somewhere between Israel, Portugal, and building a business, and thirty minutes that did not feel small.

  11. A student sent me this.

    Hebrew 1 and Hebrew 2 open on the table. The alphabet chart beside them. Colored pencils and a small handwritten card, in Hebrew, in their own hand, that reads “Shabbat Shalom, Morah.”

    “Shabbat Shalom, teacher.”

    Not typed, they wrote it. Letters formed slowly by someone who is still learning to form them on the one day of the week made for stopping, in a language thousands of years older than both of us.

    There is something I will never get used to about this work. A person somewhere I have never been, in a home I will never see, choosing to spend a piece of their Shabbat with letters I taught them. And then turning around to wish me peace in my own language.

    Thank you. You have no idea what this means.

    Shabbat Shalom to you too. 💙

  16. My dad asked me the same question every year, months before the holiday. Are you coming to the dinner?

    It took moving an ocean away to understand he was never really asking about dinner.

  24. A Very Special Shabbat Shalom Friends 🕯️🕯

    One year.

    For fifty two weeks, something quiet and beautiful has been happening on my Facebook page. Every Friday I share a Shabbat greeting, and my community there sends back photographs of Shabbat. I gather them into a montage and send that light back out to everyone.

    This week is the last one. And it turned out so lovely that I wanted to share it here too, with all of you, wherever you follow me

    Thank you for the candles. The tables set and waiting. The quiet corners of your homes on a Friday evening. You did not just send photographs. You let me see how Shabbat actually lives inside your houses and inside your hearts, and being trusted with that is not a small thing

    There is a reason this fit so naturally alongside teaching Hebrew. A language is not really a set of words. It is a way people have found, over thousands of years, to say here I am to one another

    Thank you for a year of light.

    Shabbat Shalom 💙

  29. I quit a book this week. What I picked up instead undid me. 💙

    Rachel Goldberg-Polin reading her own audiobook about her son Hersh. And the way she describes him, cell by cell, his knees, his lashes, the space between his toes, is a mother who knew her child completely.

    They took his future. They took the man he would have become.

    But there is one thing they could not touch, and I have not stopped thinking about it since.

    This is my Shabbat reflection this week. Please read it. 🕯️

    This marks the 51st Shabbat in a row that I have had the privilege of sharing your beautiful photos and messages in response to my weekly Shabbat greeting. Fifty one weeks. Which means next Friday will be one full year, and it will also be the last Shabbat Shalom montage.

    I want to sit with that for a moment before I say anything else.

    This tradition started on Facebook, and it grew so quietly beautiful that I began sharing it everywhere I am. Not because it needed a bigger audience, but because something this simple deserves to be seen.

    What began as a simple post has become one of the most meaningful things I do. Week after week you brought light into this space. Candles on your tables. Family gathered close. Quiet corners of your homes on a Friday evening. Some of you have been here since the very first one, and some of you joined along the way, and every single image made this what it became.

    This marks the 50th Shabbat in a row that I have shared your beautiful photos and messages in response to my weekly greeting. Fifty weeks. What began as a simple post has become one of my favorite traditions, and that is entirely because of you.

    And this one arrives with something special. We have entered Elul, the final month of the Hebrew year, the quiet stretch of reflection before everything begins again. A month made for exactly what you already do here every week. Pausing. Looking inward. Reaching toward each other.

    Reading your comments has become one of my favorite ways to welcome Shabbat. If I ever miss responding it is never intentional, sometimes comments get hidden, but I always feel the spirit behind them 💙

    You give me the gift of sharing my passion for teaching Hebrew and for community.

    Wishing you a peaceful and meaningful Shabbat, and a beautiful start to Elul.

    Shabbat Shalom 💙

  47. Shabbat Shalom Substack Friends 🕯️🕯️

    I posted my Shabbat Reflection this morning and invite you to read it.

    It centers around the question, “But what if?” that has plagued me for years.

    If you’re observing, may your Shabbat be meaningful and restful. Happy weekend to all.
