The Blessing of a Fruit Tree!

Once a year, we have a beautiful opportunity to say a blessing over a fruit tree...even if we can (and should!) ENJOY the trees and their luscious fruits year round. I was able to say that blessing just this week, and I want to share with you the BEAUTY of its words, and more broadly, of the Jewish vision of a world filled with GENUINE gifts presented to us personally and purposefully by G-d...to ENJOY! It's a goal worth striving for: living our lives making, and feeling surrounded by, blessings.
