During These Days







Bless these holy days of searching

That enable us to ask so many fruitful questions, 

Sanctifying our awareness of our  creative Jewish contradictions,


No matter what the traditional liturgy tells us   

We are not a chosen people. 

We are the people who choose. 


And we choose to make holy our obligations and our doubts,

Our regrets and our commitments,

And our guilt and our innocence. 


During these days of searching we ask, 

Where are you?

Here I am, today. 


Amen
