My Jewish Journey. Your Mileage Will Vary.

We all have a Jewish journey. The details are always different. Here is mine.

I grew up in a Conservative home. I went to Hebrew school. I attended High Holiday services, though mostly I stood outside with my friends. Our Passover seder was quick. We didn’t keep kosher.

I was Jewish. I knew I was Jewish. But Judaism wasn’t a big part of my life.

A friend became religious. One Passover we went to his family’s house for a seder. The seder went on for hours. I learned a lot. Something opened.

For others that opening comes........
