This year we continued our tradition of volenteering in the community before Pessach and again joined hands with "good neighboor" foundation to make food baskets to needy families.We got to the warehouse in the morning and started packing... carrots, onions, eggs... it was quite a physical activity.
We sang along while we worked and felt like this bit of manual labor was exactly the opposite of slavery in Egypt. What were doing here was helping our fellow Jew and giving up some of our physical comfort so we can be part of the Jewish nation.
After a whole morning of work, and hundreds of kilos of food, we came out of there exhusted but very very proud and happy.
Happy Passover.
