Cause Today is Also Purim

Purim, IMHO, teaches us Unity, Faith, Responsibility, and Action. All Jews were in it together. To overcome our fears we had to believe that G-d's love for his people is eternal. Everyone had their own tasks and roles. Esther was not Mordechai, and Mordechai not Esther, but each had a unique job to do. This is the model for how we should live. It is my hope that by sharing my life I will force myself to review my actions and determine if I’m truly living up to the standards of a Purim Hero.

So.. Um.. Yeah... I'm Going to be a Rabbi...

I've been accepted, and will be starting my studies at Yeshivat Chovevei Torah (YCT) Rabbinical School this fall. My father is out of the hospital (B"H, though prayers are still welcome and encouraged), and I had a perfect 4.0 gpa not just for this semester, but for the year. So... I guess I got my answers. I'm no longer in limbo. Life is good, and G-d... well... he's GREAT!
