Kavvanah of the Week
This year we are exploring kavvanot - short orientations or intentions that reflect the part of ourselves that we bring to a particular moment.
 
Kavvanot can be used for moments and actions of any size and significance.

For making peace:
I fear this conversation.
 
I fear
it will be hard
it will be painful
it will not lead to resolution.
 
May I find the courage
to do this hard thing
without hardening myself.
 
May I find the compassion
to hold this pain
for myself, for another
so that it is contained.
 
May I enter this conversation
remembering
that the way to peace
often winds through high peaks of rage
and valleys of resentment;
nonetheless, may I hold on to hope
 
and may I listen
at least twice as much as I speak.
 
Rabbi Deborah Silver

all who risk themselves to protect it.
 
Elohei Avoteinu, God of our ancestors

Ma’ayan Hayyenu, Wellspring of our lives,
