Blessing for Myself and for You |
may you keep breathing each moment in and out may more and more of your cells may you keep trusting your feet, your path, your heart, may your bare feet be caressed by may you know that the path of trailblazing has been walked by many souls ahead of you may your roots may you inhabit the crown may you ḥevruta with Esther, making banquet after banquet |
A poem-blessing for trailblazers of many kinds, to honor everyday courage and to inspire trust and self-compassion. May we get the support we need as we midwife the world to come.

- We strongly advise against printing sacred texts and art containing divine names as these copies must be regarded with reverence, complicating their casual treatment and disposal.
- If you must dispose of a printed sacred text (one containing Divine Names), please locate the closest genizah (often established by a synagogue) and contact its custodians for further instructions. We also recommend using Morah Yehudis Fishman's Prayer for Adding a Work to the Genizah.
