The world needs beautiful things.
It is the mantra of my friend Rabbi Leah Berkowitz’s book, and it is a truth of the world—always, but especially in uncertain times. Over Shabbat, I found beauty in the sun shining after days of rain, in long (socially distanced) walks with my family and seeing other neighbors and family doing the same, and in the sweet chalk messages popping up around my neighborhood.
Where did you find beauty? Where are you finding it right now? Take a picture and tag it with #WiseBeautifulThings, and let’s see how much beauty we can find in the week ahead. Because, the world needs beautiful things.
