Dear all,

As they do with every revolution around the sun, my eyes required an adjustment to my prescription. When I put my glasses back on, I was able to see more clearly, more sharply, and more precisely.

I was the same person.

The vista out my window was the same vista.

But an ever so slight change in lens made all the difference.

This taught me a life value.

We won鈥檛 always see eye-to-eye with others. I have my convictions. They have theirs. But perhaps if we take a moment in time to try on a new lens, a new perspective 鈥� we can create opportunities for shared visions.

With love and shalom,

Rabbi Zach Shapiro
