We&#8217;re on the home stretch toward Shavuot as we enter the last Shabbat of this year&#8217;s Omer journey.  Having gotten this far on this daily practice is evidence of a certain kind of endurance, but it is just a hint of the kind of endurance we all need throughout our lives.  One [...]]]></description>
