Have you ever entered in a synagogue? Have you ever prayed with a Jewish community? Today, when every Jews celebrate the Tu B\u2019shevat<\/strong>, I chose to do it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This celebration is called also “the holiday of the trees<\/strong>“, indeed the Jews sitting around a table and reciting prayers they eat some fruit from the land of Israel. This ritual has two meaning: first, the connection of our life with the earth<\/strong> through the food, and second, the remembrance of our root<\/strong> like our family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was my first experience of this celebration and when the time ended, I thought in my origins, my family, and also the connections between us and the earth. I thought about the climate change and how is big our responsibility in these changes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nobody is an island and everyone has own roots. <\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

We need to remember this words every time, because otherwise we risk to believe that who we are, it is because of us and not because what I received from many people who made my story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the Jews community to teach us this worthy message!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
