KOL NIDRE

Tonight begins the observance of Yom Kippur our day of atonement where we review the past year, our ethical choices and promises, evaluate our performance and remember our loved ones who have departed.  We begin a fast after the evening meal.  The matzoh ball soup is on the stove, roasted chicken, sweet potatoes and of course pickles (Jewish veggies!)  Abe and I will attend the beautiful and mournful service up on campus (in a church...I love that!) and tomorrow Liz joins me at Hillel.  The music for tonight's service is absolutely beautiful.  And to all of my friends everywhere I wish you a year filled with good health, fulfilled dreams and world peace!
