“A poem cannot stop a bullet. A novel can't defuse a bomb. But we are not helpless. We can sing the truth and name the liars.”
~Salman Rushdie
May God bless you and protect you!
May God deal kindly and graciously with you!
May God shine God’s face upon you and grant you peace!
—The Priestly Blessings
May God bless you and protect you!
Be a good Jew,
Sing the truth!
This life should be so beautiful.
May God deal kindly and graciously with you!
Be a naughty Jew,
Name the liars!
Enjoy saying no.
May God shine God’s face upon you and grant you peace!
We are here in obligation and doubt,
We are not helpless!
We are not alone.
Ken y’hi ratzon
We will be whole,
We must try!
Make it so.
Amen
