Dear Kvellers,
One of the overarching themes of the High Holidays is atonement. In synagogue onYom Kippur, we say theViduiprayer, a confessional, in which we pound our chests and fess up to a host of sins that we, collectively, have committed throughout the year (i.e. I have lied, I have cheated, I have robbed).
今年我们想调整Vidui bit. Taking inspiration from one of our most popular High Holiday posts in whichJordana Horn adapted the Vidui for parents, this year Kveller will compile our own inventory of modern day sins and confessions. This is where you come in!
What are you remorseful about this year? It can big or small, mundane or existential, parenting-related or not. Did you yell more than you’d like? Got too busy to reach out to a friend in need? Ate too many cupcakes? (Just kidding, that one is definitely not a sin).Send us a short sentence about what you are sorry about in the comments of this post, on our Facebook page, or tweet at@kvellerwith the hashtag #KvellerVidui.
We’ll compile them all in time for Yom Kippur. So take a moment, reflect on your year, and join us in writing the Kveller Vidui.
