#BeyondHoodie Love the message of the product. Ordered a t-shirt - the letters began peeling off after I laundered it once. The sweatshirt runs small - size I ordered was too snug for me so I would order one size bigger than you usually do. They never responded to my email

@davidhogg111 First, congrats on getting accepted to Harvard. They are lucky to have you. Second, the LA Times included a quote from you in an article about the top ten quotes which represent the spirit of the Times...I have the hard copy. Let meknow if you can't find it.

As the High Holidays are behind us and the festivity of Sukkot lies ahead, this Torah portion (and a recent reading) remind me of something so very true about life....In a way it is a summary of life in less than 15 words.

In a rabbinic writing Moses actually bargains with God to live and simply become what we might call emeritus leader once Joshua becomes his successor. What do Moses (and we) learn from this and about how we think of the legacy we leave behind?

What is my commitment to a contract others signed on my behalf....and thousands of years ago no less? This week's Torah portion includes some beautiful and inspiring language and images.

Blessings and curses and "Why do bad things happen to good people?". Just a few of the "small" questions we are invited to grapple with in this morning's Torah reading in this last week before the Jewiish new year.

The Torah portion seems to be saying there will never be needy among us and a few verses later, there will always be needy among us. Which is it?
