It’s Erev Yom Kippur, the night before Yom Kippur.. the big daddy of all Jewish holidays.. Tomorrow yidllach everywhere will blow off work and go without food and drink. All in the name of atoning for the stuff you did last year and planning better for the next..

I just had a 6 hour drive back to Vermont tonight which gave me some prime atoning time.. Generally you try to think of how you might have wronged others.. .. but last night I was thinking that ‘d been too hard  on myself regularly.. maybe that sounds self serving.. but I don’t mean it that way.. anyway.. at least I know what I mean.

One other tradition is to apologize to  anyone you may have wronged and to ask for their forgiveness.. so…..if I done you wrong.. i really do apologize .   I wonder if the talmud has anything on the validity of atonement by social networking..

always breaking new ground here.

nite all, nite sam..
