Erev Shabbat Chanukah – Close of Kislev

Shabbat Shalom y’all! See you in a new week.

Remember Kislev, the month of rest and sleep and dreams is coming to a close. Yoseph, our dreamiest ancestor, is in full dream prophetic mode. Spend some time this Shabbos. What do you dream, big and small? How can you rest in ways that renew your energy? How can we support each other in the realization of our dearest and first dreams?

Our Rabbis teach Yoseph spent 22 years before the fulfillment of his dream that his brothers would bow to him (spoilers for next parasha). And so we humans should give a dream 22 years to happen before we give up. Don’t give up yet! The World that is Coming is here every week, when we rest and dream and let our minds hope for a better world.

In love. In solidarity. In wholeness. 💜
