Thoughts on Chanukah and Wobbles from Cheryl

This year, while placing candles in my Chanukah menorah, I dropped a couple, and they broke. I could still use them, but they were a bit wobbly. My menorah has one or two candle holders which are slightly larger than the rest, and any candles I place in them are also a little wobbly. But I noticed that sometimes the wobbly candles, which I fear could topple out of the menorah, instead are the ones which burn the longest. They are both wobbly and strong.

This year, we all have had our wobbles, but we have also discovered that we are strong. May 2021 be a year in which we know that we will overcome our wobbles with patience, perseverance, and strength. Happy last night of Chanukah!
