Burgold Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 To those I have wronged in deed or thought I ask forgiveness and for the strength to be better. To that which I have envied, hurt or through inaction allowed suffering, I hope to be better. Today, as every day has the chance to be a day of renewal, a start of a new year. Let us live up to our promise and be true to our word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgold Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 Hope you had a fulfilling Yom Kippur Burg. Thanks. I think the best thing I did was I taped some shofar music so I could bring it to where my Mom was rehabbing. The sounds of those horns are very meaningful to her. This way even though she couldn't be part of any service at least she got to hear the shofar blast. (shofar is a hollowed out ram's horn that is blown like a trumpet. It's blown in three specific ways each with its own significance and is played primarily only at Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggo-toni Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Nice. I'm sure that meant the world to her. My wife's grandfather died of Alzheimer's, and as you can imagine, he didn't even recognize people at the end, but my wife said he could still remember all the words/melodies to Latvian folk songs (he'd fled from the Germans during WW2).
