Embracing the Joy and Significance of Shavuos: A Celebration of Being Chosen

As we prepare for the holiday of Shavuos, I can't help but think about my own experiences and the significance of this joyous occasion. From shopping for new Yom Tov clothing for the kids to setting up our learning schedules for the night, we go all in to celebrate this holy holiday. But sometimes, amidst the hustle and bustle, we may overlook the true meaning and power of Shavuot. At the core of Shavuos, we find exuberant celebration and gratitude for being chosen by God to learn His Torah and walk in His ways. The Gemara says that on Shavuos, we all agree that we must celebrate with cheesecake and our parties because we should be proud of being chosen as children of God. I'll share a personal story about recognizing the significance and joy of our unique and special mission and how lucky we are to have been chosen by God. Don't miss this heartfelt reminder to rejoice, sing, and dance on Shavuos!
