This week, Parashat Va’etchanan, Shabbat Nachamu, and Tu B’Av invite us to move from heartbreak toward consolation—and from listening toward love. The Shema reminds us that listening is a sacred practice that can deepen connection, understanding, and hope.
Love
Spark of Holiness
This week—between Valentine’s Day and Rosh Chodesh Adar—I’m holding a simple intention: reach out in love. Parashat Mishpatim reminds us to protect the vulnerable, notice those who feel unseen, and increase joy through small acts of kindness.
