Menorah: Symbol of Life


While many in the world may not know all there is about the Menorah, there is four elements that make it important.

The first being it is the symbol of religious freedom and a reminder of an important time in history; the second two are hope and faith in G-d.

But the one that many people may not know that every time the Menorah is lit, G-d save’s the light from each and every candle in Paradise; I tend to wonder if this is why that which is usually seen from Paradise is so bright it almost hurts one’s eyes.

What is further interesting about this photograph itself are the colors of blue and white, which are also colors that come from Paradise and while they are considered sacred colors; they also happen to be two colors I hold dear, because of a reminder of something several years ago.

But most importantly, when one looks at the Menorah it is a symbol of the love of people; that should never be broken.

What a beautiful reminder, of not just G-d, but something greater then ourselves.

In thoughtful love, of a particular Person.
