A big day for my family – May 21, 2023

I’ll post more about it another time (it is kinda personal) but for my own recollection.

May 21, 2023 was a very, very good day, worthy of a humanistic shehechyahu (courtesy of Machar and Ritualwell):

Let us bless the goodness which we have encountered in the world,

which has kept us alive and sustained us, and brought us to this moment.

N’-varekh et ha-tov              

asher pagash-nu ba-olam                  

she-hekheya-nu v’-kiyy’ma-nu,              

v’-higgi’a-nu la-z’man ha-zeh. Amen.

נְבָרֵךְ אֵת הַטּוֹב

אֲשֶׁר פָּגַשְׁנוּ בָּעוֹלָם

שֶׁהֶחֱיָנוּ וְקִיַּמְנוּ

וְהִגִּיעָנוּ לַזְּמָן הַזֶּה אָמֵן
