If our identity is defined by what we do, then we can become anything we “do” consistently. It dawned on me that transformation can occur simply by, becoming. Should you train for a marathon and run in the marathon, you are a marathoner. If you remove meat products from your diet, you become a vegetarian. Commitment to becoming is within our control. Do you like to get up early? You’re an “Early Riser” Do you like to stay up late? You might be called a “Night Owl”. The opportunity in the restrictions imposed by the pandemic, provided a platform to become more than we thought possible.

In front of the television with the rabbi and cantor streaming live. I think I really liked this year’s services.

I was rushing to get out of the house last week and I noticed I had not made my bed. I was already late and thought about leaving the bed unmade. But I quickly thought how I would feel later that evening getting into an unmade bed. So, I quickly made the bed.

I took the IRT down BK street Where the RBG Twirled a beautiful B   She took that twirl all the way with a frill To the big SC Where there was no We   While she was alive Her rules changed the end of doctrine that prevented any woman to become legend   An in doing so became a beacon for justice and right,

I know someone who went out with Ruth Bader in high school in Brooklyn. He described her as smart, pretty, vivacious and a cheerleader. No matter how hard I pressed or the questions I asked he said no more.

One of the lessons that Justice Ginsburg often repeated was the wisdom from her mother-in-law who advised her that sometimes it is advisable to be deaf.

589 days ago, I wrote this blog about my Lady-Hero. The Notorious RBG Tis' Herself: An affectionate expression in both Irish and Scottish language denoting a woman of importance, usually the Lady of the house. When I think of Ruth, I think “Tis’ Herself.” The Notorious R.B.G. On the Basis of Sex, Mimi Leder did a spectacular job directing the movie of Ruth Bader Ginsberg’s struggles for equal rights. Her life, her accomplishments and her steady reason are supernatural, G-d inspired.
