Preparing for Rosh Hashanah - You are who you are!

Preparing for Rosh Hashanah - You are who you are!

At the very moment you stand before the King on Rosh Hashanah
Rosh Hashanah -the day of judgement - But he takes everything into consideration - immediate past, past-past and the future -all in your present moment- on Rosh Hashanah-

Who are you going to choose to be? The person you have been in the past year? or someone more in concert with what you truly want and who you truly are? You can't make it up on the spot- We have to get in touch now with ourselves - in a deeper way that we normally do -

We have got to say to ourselves now things like -enough is enough - No more completely free indulgence with desserts during the week, no more blaming, pent up -sub-conscious grudges  - you get the picture -

To show up with your ideal thought about yourself -it takes thinking and reflection now

Hashem judged Yishmael -(Arabs) the one whose children have done so much damage to the Jewish people favorably on Rosh Hashanah - Because at the very moment of judgement - Yishmael had repented- in truth -at that very moment - There is only present in Hashem's world- at the moment he judges you -you can be back at your pristine pure self -

Let go of the guilt, let it go - forgive -don't bear grudge- do it - for yourself - be free of those things that weigh you down-skew your thoughts-

Underneath it all we are all righteous -bring it - go ahead bring it and let Hashem see the person that he has known all the time -the real true self
