In the Season of Mindfulness

Kavanah ~  to pray with mindfulness, intention. 

Tonight is Kol Nidre, the night before Yom Kippur, when Jews ask God to forgive them and inscribe them in the Book of Life for the coming year.  A serious holiday where you’re supposed to fast from sundown to sundown, when the Shofar, ram’s horn, is sounded at the end of the day tomorrow, we’ll breathe a sigh of relief and begin the New Year.

Focus remains one of my ongoing issues, staying with something long enough to accomplish it.  I always say the reason I survived my years in the television industry, noted for its adrenaline rush, is because I’m a sprinter not a marathoner.  Give me a 19 day production schedule and I’m humming.

But some things take time and that means learning how to go the distance. I
always pray for strength, determination, commitment.  Please God, let me lose weight, let me write every day, have patience with my kids, laugh with my husband, do squats and push-ups, listen to my friends, do a little something for the world.

I must say, I’m learning to go the distance.  Today’s our 26th anniversary.  My  husband and I looked at each other this morning and said, “Oy, how did we do it?”  Not easy but we believed in the process and gave it  and each other a chance.  We have 24 and 21 year old daughters.  We’ve lived in our house 20 years.

If intention is a muscle, I think I’m beginning to bulk up.
