A prayer.
A few years ago, one late Shabbat afternoon, I was taking my weekly walk in the Jerusalem forest.
Feeling emotionally and spiritually depleted, my efforts to breathe in new energy and excitement for life were repeatedly faced with the closed doors of my tired heart.
Trying, perhaps subconsciously, to take Reb Nachman's advice and verbally repeat a word that might generate a spark of internal dialog, my word emerged simply as -
Apathy.
Apathy.
Apathy...
Won't you heal my apathy..
Call into the abyss where light is fading, and the dark will threaten to come and take me.
So take me...
✨
The next word followed almost immediately -
Reverie..
Won't you wake my Reverie...
✨
With every verse, the melody modulated, until I was racing through the trees, heart beating, singing at the top of my lungs
✨ ✨
"Apathy" has been a prayer I've carried with me ever since.
This song is offered as encouragement to many of us who often feel closed, numb, and spiritually exhausted.
This is our battle cry.
Shake off the dust.
Rise..
From apathy.
❤
