Shabbos affords us the opportunity to climb to a higher level – above a 3 dimensional world of 6 to a metaphysical experience of 7. But Chanukah goes one step further, affording us the opportunity to touch the sublime, to experience the transcendental, to tap into an energy usually reserved for the Messianic era. Let us use these waning moments of this holiday to raise our bars just that little bit higher, ride the wave and reach for those stars… decide and confirm what it is we’d like to improve in our lives and then allow the fire of Chanukah to light, pave, the way…
Wishing you and yours an enlightening Chanukah experience!
Rabbi Shimshon Silkin
