Closing out International Women’s Month as we prepare for Passover tomorrow evening, feels like the perfect moment to celebrate the fierce courage of the Jewish women who sparked the original Exodus, the heroines who refused to let the darkness of Egypt and their harsh reality, dim their vision of the future.
Kabbalah teaches that our generation (the one that will welcome the final redemption) is the reincarnation of those very souls.
We are these women. We are the generation of faith, hope, and purpose. Even as we face personal and national challenges and the darkness feels thick, our hearts remain steadfast and we move forward with a courage that refuses to be limited. This is the miraculous energy we each can access over the next eight days. As we celebrate the Holiday of Freedom, remember that we aren’t just recounting a story,we are living out our heritage of resilience and the ability for inner freedom! Am Yisrael Chai!
