The stars inside

We spent a few hours at temple this morning, and the best part was hearing a Rosh Hashanah story about an apple tree who longs for stars like the one she sees in the sky, only to discover that she contains them herself. I originally heard it told by Peninnah Schram, who wrote it. You can read it here. It's a beautiful story any day of the year and for people of any faith. I'd love to hear what you think of it.

I think it's a lovely story for any faith. The meaning of the story applies to us all. Happy New Year!

What a lovely story! Happy New Year to you and your family! May the Lord bless you and cause His face to shine on you!!

I am not Jewish so I am not sure what to say lol.. But I hope you have a wonderful New Year and May God bless you and your family!
