Let us hope that this new year will deepen the awareness and sensitivity, between us and ourselves, between ourselves and those around us, and may we truly merit to be inscribed in the book of life.

"When we listen to the sounds of the shofar we can hear our own voices. The sound of the shofar reminds us of the approaching judgment on Yom Kippur, as well as the everyday siren of the ambulance, both of which represent situations where man’s life hangs in the balance. These voices remind us of the need to listen to ourselves and our conscience and the need to contemplate our past actions in order to make our lives more meaningful going forward."  full article:  Jerusalem Post
