Happy Rosh Hashanah! Happy New Year!
|
L'shanah tovah tikatev v'taihatem! L'shanah tovah tikatevi v'taihatemi! First off, I am a very bad Jew. I am working on Rosh Hashannah. I have been working for the whole thing. I have not taken the day off and walked to Synagogue to hear the sounding of the Shofar. I have however, spent the past few days in introspection and making resolutions. I did buy apples and dip them in honey to have a sweet new year. But, I did not eat kosher yesterday and I probably won't today either. I have not gone to fresh running water to cast off my sins this year, not have I emptied my pockets into the river. (I never put anything in my pockets honestly.) Most importantly, I am working. My mum would be quite displeased with me. I could go into a long discourse about what Rosh Hashanah is, but you are on the internet and have some sort of web browser and are thus capable of finding out yourself. I am sure there are people much better suited than I to explain it. Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are two of the holidays I actually like and try to observe in the Jewish religion. I have deviated greatly from my childhood practice and strayed more into KBH, Alchemy and more pagan roots. Posted by Utopia at October 5, 2005 07:56 AM CommentsHappy Rosh Hashannah to you!
