After crossing the finish line in the Race for Hope 5K.
Week 5-/Hod (SPLENDOR)-Day 2/Gevurah (DISCIPLINE)
"We will be more successful in all our endeavors if we can let go of the habit of running all the time, and take little pauses to relax and re-center ourselves. And we'll also have a lot more joy in living."
-Thich Nhat Hanh-
There is something wonderful about working hard over a period of time and then seeing that work produce visible results. Today I jogged/walked a 5K after a couple months of training and ended up doing it 5 minutes faster than the 5K I did in March. Sometimes thought we can't see so clearly. As a preschool teacher I don't always find out what the children learn or discover after being in my class. Sometimes we have to work hard and take it on faith our good work will produce good results. One student told me his Tae Kwan Do teacher teaches "Practice doesn't make perfect but it does make habit."
After nightfall on Sunday:
BA-RUCH A-TAH ADO-NAI E-LO-HE-NU ME-LECH HA-OLAM
ASHER KID-E-SHA-NU BE-MITZ-VO-TAV VETZI-VA-NU AL SEFI-RAT HA-OMER.
Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the Universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments, and commanded us concerning the counting of the Omer.
Today is thirty days which is four weeks and two days of the Omer.
