Thought for the Day by Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks is on Rosh Hashanah.
Yesterday was Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. For ten days, culminating in Yom Kippur, the day of atonement, we reflect on our lives, apologising for the wrongs we've done, and seeking forgiveness from God and our fellow human beings. It's a fixed time in the Jewish calendar for trying to put things right in our lives, and it involves an immensely powerful set of rituals and prayers.
From The Teachings of Silvanus: "Do not be a sausage which is full of useless things."
