Today is a day of Atonement for me and Jews world wide. We fast, we pray, we ask for forgiveness. Later after dark, we break the fast and slowly come back to the world as we know it, hopefully wiser and calmer. This is a hard day but one in which I learn more about sacrifice than on the day before or tomorrow.

It's always interesting to learn about other cultures. I didn't know the meaning of Yom Kippur, until you mentioned it here. We learn something new each day!

Learning about sacrifice is valuable, for whatever reason.

Sheila I have several good friends that observe this day. I didn't realize the significance until I asked them more about it years ago. Powerful stuff.
