Cheryl 💛 😁!!!! Such a joy to hear from you. This is a sweet message coming from one of the bravest and honest people I've met on this spiritual journey. I hope to see you again in a va'ad soon 🙏.
Diana what an amazing article. I am in awe of your courage to undertake this dinner. I have loved studying with you and have learned so much from you. Even though I was raised in a very Jewish household I couldn’t have pulled this off as well as you did. Kol Kavod!
Thank you so much, my friend. You have taught me a great deal over the years, especially non-judgement and faith. I don't think this Shabbat was as much about courage for me as about genuine openness and curiosity, which isn't hard with Alan as a guide 🥰.
I am blown away by you, Diana!!! What a wonderful learning experience and with the master himself! And thank you for bringing your and Allan’s experience to life through such a colorful and informative story! Being one of your special chevruta, I personally look forward to keeping abreast ofyour honoring of each Shabbat going forward in your own style and timing. There is no question in my mind that you’re “awareness” was well kindled And is in the process of rooting. What a blessing to spend Shabbat with Allan! Thanks for sharing it with us!!
Thank you so much, Dear Marcia. As one of my dearest chevruta, you've taught me so much about "awareness" over the years ❤️. I hope we will sit and light candles together for Shabbat one day 🙏
Dear Diana, welcome to my world with Alan Morinis! Such a sweet rendering of awareness practice. And that kind of sharp attention is so helpful on all our days! 💕
Thank you, DIANNA so much for sharing your Shabbat story. Not unlike you, I too had never experienced Shabbat in a meaningful way. I am learning and loving our Sabbath. There could be no finer teacher than Alan be well.
Congratulations Diana on your bravery! Shabbat with the guy that wrote the book! Well done!

We both kept our senses of humour. And enjoyed the whole process.

It was easy. Diana just did whatever I told her to do (and a few other things as well)!

Amen! That would be warm and wonderful.

And, Heather, you made me laugh and laugh! 💕
Amen, Amen Dear Bev, and I know you have your hands *wonderfully* full. The only thing missing from our Shabbat dinner was YOU. Next time I hope 🙏😘
Thanks so much for writing about your experience!
Thank you so much, Alanna 🙏
Ok Alan - can you come to my house and help
Me with Shabbat ??
My turn next!!! The closest synagogue is only 2 miles away.
I am waiting outside for you Alan since you have nothing but time these days!
What a fun Shabbat you had Diana.
Beautiful storytelling which is a wonderful way to learn.
Thank you for this very inspiring post.
I'm on my way, Heather. It's a long walk, so I should be there in February or so. Hold on!!
You're hysterical, H 🤣. I think Alan definitely has enough zerizut to come see you in Texas for Shabbat AND take that 2 mile walk to shul! 🙏
That really is a great story
Thank you, James 🙏
What a wonderful story! Thanks for sharing it.

I'm still waiting. I bet he shows up eventually.
