From Tish: Friends,
Tonight, thousands of Jews in New York City and many more throughout the world will begin the observance of Yom Kippur, or the Day of Atonement.
Yom Kippur is a time when the Jewish people take a close look at the past year to identify and atone for transgressions, and to take the time to learn from mistakes and misdeeds. As millions around the world engage in this time of personal reflection, we should all pause and make a commitment to the kind of person and community member we want to be for the coming year.
I wish all those who are observing an easy fast and a day full of meaningful reflections.
G’mar Hatima Tova and may all have health and happiness in the New Year.

ON ASKING FOR FORGIVENESS
Apology Letter from the Brain
Hey there. I’m sorry. OK? But can I say
something? Look. I admit I wasn’t perfect. No
one is perfect. That’s a fact. Speaking of facts,
don’t you think we all need to take a minute and
decide who is right and who is wrong? Every side
is different; it’s just that my side seems more
right. I’m not just saying that because it’s my
side. I think a lot of other people would agree with
me, given the chance. If I upset you in some way, please know that wasn’t my
intention. I didn’t know how sensitive you were. It’s obvious I can set you off very
easily. That’s not an insult; it’s just an observation. I think it would help if we
talked about this more and argued about who was telling the truth. I would like to
see you in person and tell you how the situation has affected me. I may use this
opportunity to bring up other times you have hurt me in the past. If possible, I
would like to hurt you back. Either way, I want to be in control. Until then, take
care. And please, remember I reached out first.
I remain,
THE BRAIN
Apology Letter from the Heart
Hey there. I’m sorry. I’ve found it hard to tell you this, and I realize my apology
may be too little or come too late. It is important for me to let you know that I am
sorry for what I did or said or didn’t do or say. I was wrong. I make mistakes. I
HATE that I made one with you. I’m reaching out because life goes by so fast
and I just don’t want my one life to go by without expressing this to you. I want to
do and be better. This apology is yours. Feel free to do whatever you want with it.
My hope is that it gives you comfort, but my goal is that it doesn’t cause you any
pain. Again, I am TRULY sorry. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
Love,
THE HEART
P.S. I’m sorry.”
