hallo to everybody and shana towa
peacecamp, 00:59h
Hallo everybody.
SHANA TOWA means : a happy New Year.
For the Jews, monday october 3rd of this year (2005) is the eve of the NEW YEAR, called "ROSH HASHANA". Jewish holidays always begin on the evening before, and last until the sunset, of the actual holiday.
The Jewish calendar follows the cycle of the moon, and this is the reason why the Jewish New Year does not coincide with a fix date of the Gregorian calendar.
10 days after ROSH HASHANA Jews celebrate YOM KIPPOR, the Day of Atonement. This is the day to make PEACE - with GOD, with your friends, with your enemies and with yourself. You pray GOD to forgive your sins and ask him to write you in the book of life. And you promise to do better in the New Year than you did before....
I personally cherish Yom Kippor, which is a day of fasting and praying - or, if you are not that religious, of contemplation and meditation. There is always place to do better in your attitude and your dealing with those around you. We can use Yom Kippor to reconsider, to judge and to improve our attitudes, our relations and actions towards others and even to ourselves.
I therefore want to ask everybody, kids or adults, Jews, Moslems or Christians, to forgive me for anything I did, willingly or unwillingly, that upset you or that hurt your feelings. I shake your hand and send you all a BIG HUG and a hearty wish for PEACE
