Feeling the dough between your fingers as you knead it just so. Seeing how it rises, takes a form, takes a shape. Hearing the blessings spoken, so loud and so clear. Smelling the scent that beakons in Shabbat and embraces us whole. Tasting the bread of our people, our nation, our day. And smiling because you know the whole world is in it together.
Stop doing and start being.
