You Don’t Know What You Got ‘til It’s Gone
Friday, April 28th, 2006April 30 – May 6, 2006
Do you find that you appreciate things only after they’re gone? Do you look back over parts of your life wishing you had valued and cherished the things that are no longer there?
This week we have not one but two Zohar portions – Acharei Mot and Kedoshim. When you put the two titles together, they create the phrase “after death they are holy.” The Sages explain that this code reminds us that only after the Light has left do most of us realize that the Light was there in the first place.
