Teachers of Patience

היום אחד ושלשים יום שהם ארבעה שבועות ושלשה ימים בעמר
Today is thirty-one days, which is four weeks and three days of the omer
תפארת שבהוד
A day of compassion in a week of humility

Patience is a virtue that I lack . . . then I look at my plants


My succulents, which looked so sparse when first planted in their box










My lemon tree, which took 3 years to bring that first fruit










Trying to retain the lessons they teach me . . . in spite of myself
