Good morning and happy Monday!

My weekend was busy. Friday night I was shuttling folks around - kids to events / a play, my wife to a school fundraiser. Saturday was gym, errands / groceries, cleaning our garden up / new mulch, and once again running kids around. Sunday was church and mostly a lot of laundry. Still not done. It's never done.

Hope your day Monday starts the week off well!

There’s something about this time of year —

When the air shifts, the light stretches just a bit longer each evening, and color starts creeping back into the world -

That invites reflection.

Not the heavy kind.

The soft kind.

The kind that says: Maybe it’s time.

Time to shake off some of what’s been weighing us down.

Time to open a window, literally and metaphorically.

Time to notice how far we’ve come, even if we didn’t take the route we thought we would.

This season — and this moment right before a holiday all about shedding what no longer serves — is a gentle nudge:

You don’t have to carry everything into tomorrow.

You can choose what stays.

You can start again, lighter.

So this Shabbat, I hope you find a little quiet.

A little clarity.

A little corner of peace, wherever you are.

You’ve earned it.

Shabbat Shalom 🌿

4/ 🧵For some even more rousing, brassy, energetic #Weekend music, check out my #BalkanBrass playlist on my #YouTube channel (link in bio). Not recommended for gentle souls who want quiet listening, I’ve got another couple of playlists for that. This one is for drinking, dancing and carousing - #Balkan style. Mostly #Serbian with a focus on the fabulous #Guca festival, but also plenty of Macedonian and even some Bulgarian tunes on offer. #MusicVideo #Music youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0i
