When asked to share a few words, the phrase, “Are we there yet?” popped into my mind. Like a child anxiously awaiting a destination in a long car ride, we understand as adults the time it takes for any journey. When it comes to life, the ultimate journey, it’s similar in nature.
We want to arrive and reach outcomes that serve humanity.
While we enter in a less COVID intensive Passover this year, we might say we are almost there as we gather together. However, when I think about all of our loved ones and family members whose journeys are still challenging, along with the war and so many innocent lives lost, we are clearly not there yet. The journey is still a difficult one, though progress is certainly on the horizon.
This year, I pray for the world and for Ukraine and that our destination of peace, health and goodwill amongst all will come to fruition. As Passover arrives, we will gather with hope, empathy, kindness and pray for less suffering worldwide. Only then will we have reached our destiny. For now, we must do all we can and work towards a better world for our children and generations to come.
