Couldn't respond when I first read this. Also felt too heavy and just TOO MUCH! Hope your Shabbat did bring you some peace!

My heart hurts. My brain is heavy with worry for all Jews and for Israel and for my own kids. Sending you love, dear fellow Schwartz.

Jena, thanks for channeling the deep grief many of us are feeling into a heartful prayer. I read the prayer this morning at our minyan service, and it gave us some words to center our sorrow.

Shabbat Shalom

Sending you ease, peace, love, and the hope that the senseless violence will end. Anti-semitism can never be ok.
