Wishing You A Good & Sweet Year
Winner of the Cool Jew New You Giveaway is Michele P., Philadelphia
 Michele is casting off and starting new in 5770:
"The mainstream New Year is often
about resolutions and I no longer 'just resolve' to do anything. It
sounds passive and gives me a feeling of a last ditch attempt, like
I've let something go horridly wrong in the past. The shofar, and the
Jewish New Year, is empowering, it is about opening one's eyes.
So,
my wake up call is to be more aware every day. Be aware of my temple
needs, as membership chair, be aware of the Jewish community and, the
mainstream, to help all not just a group. To be aware of my role as a
mother and wife. To be aware of my own needs and desires, to be the
best person I can be. To network more to help raise others up to their
aspirations. So, the shofar call is my awareness call, and it isn't
even sounding yet, and I can see more clearly and hear it echo through
me - I am honestly blessed."
Congratulations to Michele. Thank you for all who shared your thoughts with us!
Your Shopkeeper,
Jennie
