Can we ever be ready enough?  Are we ready for Rosh Hashana can be thought to mean - did we finish our cooking for the Rosh Hashanah seudos.  It can be thought to imply if we have our new wardrobe waiting with a full new attire for going to shul of Rosh Hashana.   On the spiritual realm it should imply; are you ready to hear the shofar’s call with all that it tells us.  Are we ready to coronate Hashem as our King and become his compliant servants once more?  Are we ready to say that we have made a ‘cheshbon hanefesh’ of year 5769 before heading to year 5770.  It’s a new decade.  A new era.  It could mean a new you!

Part of getting ready for the Jewish New Year also means well wishing for all our relatives and friends.  Did you visit or speak to your bubby, tante, old friend, and of course your siblings?  Did you wish them all a Shana Tova U’mesukah?  If you didn’t you can still do so today and tomorrow and even on Rosh Hashana.  It’s too late to get your greeting card to your loved ones out, but you can still make a phonecall, and you can still send a shana tova basket!

Shana Tova!
