Each week, I intend to write a brief “Taste of Shabbat” to share with you some of my own reflections on the week. I hope this will be a mutually beneficial exercise to help capture some of the spiritually enlightening moments that we all experience each week, but tend to forget in the rush of our busy lives. I welcome your comments and feedback as we journey together, from Shabbat to Shabbat, higher and higher.
