The Message

I went to my friend’s bar mitzvah this past weekend. It was inspiring beyond measure. Seeing Alex standing on the stage reading the Torah was moving more than words can say. Writing about it moves me to tears. It utterly rocked in every way. The rabbis were something special to see:  they sang together beautifully. The highlight was formally Torah reading using his keyboard, and Judy chanting for him. Wonder filled me at seeing him treated like a normal guy. So wonderful I could cry. 


His sermon was indescribably beautiful. He related the story of Moses telling the people to build a tabernacle to Judy creating Mouth to Hand. The lesson is that God will dwell in any place that is filled with love. 

Doing the Hallmark Moment thing now: the world needs more Alex-es.
