Rabbi Marc’s A Dash of Drash – Counting Days, Making Days Count is Episode 106

Rabbi Marc Soloway April 21, 2020 Jewish Life Comments Off on Rabbi Marc’s A Dash of Drash – Counting Days, Making Days Count is Episode 106

Counting Days, Making Days Count is Episode 106 of A Dash of Drash.

As these very hard and confusing days of lockdown continue, it is easy for today to feel like yesterday and tomorrow, and to count off the days until we can go back to seeing the people we miss and resuming some of our activities. There is a big difference between counting days and making days count.  The annual counting ritual of the 49 days of the Omer has some deep wisdom on the quality of each day, which might be especially important right now.

Thanks for listening with a generous heart and sharing with others!
