- Posting #tbt photos is a lot of fun!
- There's always room for new friends...especially when they feel like longtime friends from the get-go.

- Meeting my bashert.
- Visiting Chicago.

- Flexibility and "going with the flow" are key components in managing life's ups and downs.
Inspired by Ima on (and off) the Bima, this #BlogElul post is one in a series marking the days of the Hebrew month of Elul, which precedes the Jewish High Holidays and traditionally serves as a time of reflection and spiritual preparation for the new year.
