Have you ever felt inspired? Has someone ever inspired you? Last night I took my son, who aspires to become a professional dancer, to see Rasta Thomas dance. Rasta Thomas has been his “idol” for some time now. He wants to dance like him…Rasta inspires him to be a great dancer. However, seeing Rasta on …
I thought we should have a post Thanksgiving Day gratitude post to continue the energy of thanksgiving a bit longer. So, here are three little “gifts” to help you keep feeling grateful a bit longer. I recently read something interesting. In Hebrew, the word for “turkey” is “hodu” and is etymologically related to the word …
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day. While most of North America finds reason to feel grateful on this day, everyone the whole world over can work on having an attitude of gratitude on this day…as well as every day.

More than one source has said that the world has entered a crucial time, a period when things seem to be falling apart or coming to an end. However, sometimes things have to fall apart before they can be put back together in a new form, a better organization. Has your life ever felt as …

My recent trip back to home, as well as to Syracuse University, where I earned my degree in magazine journalism, Westchester County, where I took my first two jobs right after college, and New York City, where I worked prior to leaving New York State for good, left me thinking about the path I have …
Driving today in my old stomping grounds brought back so many memories…Amazing what a trip down a few roads and highways triggers in your brain. A trip down memory lane… Memories of old friends, and times spent together. Memories of drives taken, and lovers come and gone. Memories of first jobs, and old flames. And …
It’s been a wild 10 days or so. My daughter and I discovered that her early decision application required that she show up in NYC for a portfolio review at New York University. She sent in her application on October 31. We called the university on November 2 and found out we had to be …
Just as the termites and beetles are consuming the wood on my house, life has been consuming me…or at least my time. I’m frustrated by the fact that work, kids (and their needs), physical therapy for my knee, and a variety of other things are taking up all my time and attention, leaving me little …

We just had our house painted. As soon as the siding and deck were finished, I noticed something…something I really didn’t want to see: evidence of termites. Not only that, recently I’d seen some little black bugs running around my house, and I had sneaky suspicion they were, dare I say it?, beetles. We live …
Just a short post today to make note of a special event in which all change agents might want to participate–Jewish or not: Climate Healing Shabbat and International Day of Climate Action. On October 24, Jews all over the world read Parshat Noah, the the biblical story of Noah, the flood, the ark, and the …
The new Hebrew month of Cheshvan began on Sunday, October 18th and, Monday, October 19th. In the Jewish calendar, a new month begins at the time of the new moon.
