Parshat Emor. Rashi: adults are obligated to transmit to children. Not optional.

Edith Eger z"l, 98, Auschwitz survivor: "Your kids will be whatever you make of them."

1:59:30.🏃🇰🇪
Sabastian Sawe. First sub-2-hour marathon in competitive history.
2nd half faster than the first. Closed in 59:01. On tired legs. In mile 26.
Asked pre-race if he believed he could go sub-2: "Yes."
One word. Full stop.
Do the work. Believe the answer. Cross the line.

Vayidom Aharon. Aaron was silent.
Not broken. Not absent. Forged.
Edith Eger: "We cannot choose a life free of hurt. But we can choose to be free."
Malala: "Let go. Trust the water to hold you."
Aaron knew this 3,000 years before either of them.

Charlotte Ree cared for her mother through cancer by waking at 5am — not to achieve more, just to begin the day as herself.
"Before the day begins negotiating for your attention."

In Tzav:
“A constant fire must burn—it must not go out.”

Jewish identity was never meant to be hidden.

This Pesach: be visible. Be proud. Be unapologetic.

As Tadej Pogačar said after Milan–San Remo:
Own the win.

Don’t let the fire go out. #CFO2Grow #MorethanaCFO @TamauPogi

🚨 Australia: 28 days of fuel reserves. IEA minimum? 90 days.
If a company ignored a known, catastrophic risk like this — regulators would be circling.
Why doesn't the same standard apply to Government?
Where is the plan, Minister? @ChrisBowenMP

Jensen Huang @nvidia on Israel:
“We are 100% in Israel. We are 100% behind the families there.”
Nvidia has ~6,000 employees there. He also noted they have Iranian employees with family in Iran.
No us and them. Just people. #jensenhuang #cfo2grow #morethanacfo @theallinpod

Parshat Vayikra: the root of “sacrifice” is karov — to draw close.
Jessica Campbell’s 3 L’s of leadership: Listen. Lift. Love.
Rachel Goldberg-Polin: “We are not what we think, say, or believe. We are what we do.”
That’s the whole book of Vayikra in one sentence.

Just read a most confronting book — *Things in Nature Merely Grow* by Yiyun Li.
On grief, survival & what it means to keep going.
"The gap between worth doing and being able to do is where aspiration dwells for the young and decline lies in wait for the old."

Head. Heart. Hands.
Yuval Noah Harari says the human advantage in the AI age is the integration of intellect, empathy, and skill.
Parshat Vayakhel–Pekudei said it first:
wisdom (chachmat lev), generosity (nediv lev), and craftsmanship.
Show up. Contribute. Build.

Resilience isn’t the heroic kind you see in movies — it’s the ordinary kind.
A reflection from Sarah Tuttle-Singer captures Israel well: sirens, politics, weddings, funerals — sometimes in the same week, even the same day.
Life doesn’t wait for calm.
Resilience isn’t a slogan.

Governance lesson from the case involving The Star Entertainment Group:

Management runs the company.
The board oversees it.

Executives breached duties over AML risks. Non-executive directors did not.

Lesson: governance breaks when risk isn’t escalated to the board.
