Chanukah: The Ninth Night :-)

[scarlettina]

Yes, Chanukah was over at sunset, but I found one more thing I wanted to share: a video from this year's White House Chanukah party, in which a rabbi from New Orleans tells the story of the menorah they lit. In the original Chanukah story, a lamp was lit in the wake of devastation. This menorah, too, came through devastation to be lit once more.

The 9th night is now my favorite. 12 feet of water. Thank you.

That was lovely, thank you for sharing. Sometimes you need one small thing to work out in order to make it through a disaster.

Wanted to add that that made me a little teary.
