Chanukah Workshop: 12/21/2011 What would the world look like if there was no light? (Would we even be able to tell?) A universe shrouded in darkness all the time? What would life be like without illumination and radiance? A long tunnel with no light at the end? How would we be different if we never had clarity, focus and insight? Even with light life is often so dark and lonely. Imagine what it would be like if night never ended? An existence where the dawn nevers break and the sun never rises? We can appreciate light -- and the Festival of Lights -- by imagining its contrast. A solar eclipse can teach us more about sunlight than the sunshine itself can. Celebrate Chanukah with Rabbi Jacobson and discover that a candle is more than a candle. The small flame that we light generates enormous power -- the power to create light in a dark world. Learn from Chanukah how to ignite your inner flame and brighten up the dreariest life and the gloomiest shadows.
