Tonight, during our Kol Nidre service, which traditionally ushers in tomorrow's solemn day of atonement, the melodic richness of our cantor's voice will chant the ancient prayer, which for thousands of years has inspired the Jewish people to congregate and reflect ever so pensively over the past year in hopes of identifying and absorbing aspects of our personal lives that prove in need of change for the better as the new year unfolds.
Though I've welcomed our high holy days into the depths of my heart throughout
My life, during recent years, I've grown ever more soulfully aware of
My need to absorb certain psalms ever more consciously into my daily existence
After tomorrow's service, we'll break the fast in our home with family and friends
So it's likely that I'll not have time to post those psalms until early next week, if
At that later date, doing so is still uppermost in my mind ...
