Another Yom Kippur is in the books. My mother is headed to Israel. She has never been, and she will be going to the Wailing Wall. As is custom, she will place a note in the Wall asking God to look after those who need it most. She will be including my prayers as well. My father will guard the home base in South Florida, and enjoy a few days of peace and quiet without the phone ringing.
As for me, I just want life to get back to normal. When I need to reenergize, I turn to football.
Politics will return on Monday. A happy and peaceful Yom Kippur to all those who celebrated it.
