Passover Seder

Russ and I had the honor of attending the Passover Seder at our friend’s Julie and Paul’s house tonight. It was a meaningful evening of family and friends. PAul, ever the professor, took us through many readings about the meaning of the Seder. Each of us read different parts from a book to guide us to think about the world and the year ahead.

We all had hats of different plagues to wear. Mine was Hail. Russ’ was darkness. I was unfamiliar of darkness as a plague, but considering the days we are in can see that now.

Julie made many delicious dishes which were enjoyed by all. Especially her matzo crack toffee. Walt gave me the “best reader “ award zebra. I did get very choked up as I was the final reader. An excerpt from the diary of Anne Frank, “I still Believe.”

It was a thoughtful evening. Reminding me that we all have to keep trying on and doing our best to make the world a better place. Those sentiments used to make me think about making the greater world better, but now I am just trying to make our local world better. A good reminder, that it can all change.
