Writings & Recordings

Being thankful on Thanksgivng sounds like it should be easy - but it's not. Often, we gloss over real sources of pain and longing, or we revert to lovely, but superficial, thoughts of being thankful to be present with friends and family, which is not nothing. However, the Jewish liturgy offers a scaffolding of thankfulness in a way that makes space for gratitude, awe, pain and more. This structure has helped me through some difficu lt moments; I hope it's helpful to you too.
