The Chanukah Lights remind us that illumination begins at home,
within oneself and one's family.

Only then is one able to illuminate the world.

Illuminating The World That is so true! No matter what faith we profess, we should begin inside of ourselves & only then can we light up the world. The picture is lovely, as well. Reply

Chanukah Lights One Picture - Worth a Thousand Million Words - More So - One Picture can Illuminate One's Soul. This is how I feel with 'Chanukah Lights.' Thank you so much for 'Your' Beautiful Insight - especially in the world we are living in - people looking 'away and ignoring' "Truth & Decency" - We All Need the 'Chanukah Lights' within Our Hearts and Soul and Help Light Our Direction to Seek G-d and at the same time: Stand with Israel and The United States of America, for together we will respect and protect all people.

The Baal Shem Tov taught that "everything a person sees is a lesson in the service of G-d." Join Michoel on a weekly photo shoot to explore the wisdom of Torah and Chassidic thought through the camera's lens.
