My prayer for Rosh Hashana, 5774


That we become:
More secure in who we are, and more free to become who we ought to be;
More dedicated to sustaining the Jewish world, and more committed to giving to those outside of it;
More conscious of making sense of our past, and more engaged in building a sensible future;
More aware of our contemporary realities, and more visionary about our dreams;
More engaged in our quest for personal meaning, and more immersed in communities that enable us to give meaning to others;
More creative and sensitive in our efforts to address the problems of the world, and more steadfast and courageous in our attempts to solve them.
