Come, my friends, to meet Shabbat.
Every week I step out of mundane time
To be present to what I’m actually doing
Instead of dwelling on what I’ve done before
Or what I might do next
Or what has or will be done to me or around me,
Shabbat.
No matter how content, miserable or stimulated I am,
Every time I am fully inside the depth of a feeling
That is truly of now,
Aware in compassion, truth and presence,
In true connection, then
It is Shabbat.
And I am one with the bride:
Hopeful, excited, happy,
Meeting my friends,
My beloveds,
New every week:
My Shabbat.
Lecha Dodi!
