Hear Their Cries: This Year, May We Listen to Those Who Cry Out

Rosh HaShanah – the “head of the year” – celebrates the beginning of a new year and officially starts aseret y’mei t’shvuah, 10 days of return and repentance. It is a time of serious reflection and introspection about our lives (and about life itself); a time to ask for forgiveness for missing the mark in our actions with others, ourselves, and the Divine.

Do I contradict myself?
Very well, then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)
