"That's Nice"

Much of Judaism focuses on the sharing of ideas and the discussion involved in implementing these ideas and practices.

A person who goes to a conference for professional development, who attends lectures and roundtables aimed at inspiring a person to be an aggressive go-getter, a better salesperson, a bigger success in business, will hardly experience much self-improvement if the new methods are not employed, if the new lessons are not implemented, and the new network of acquaintances is not used.

Judaism is more than a culture and a curiosity. It is a religion. It is an identifying mark of a people who share a national bond. If we just read ideas and say, “That’s nice,” that’s nice. But when we read ideas and become inspired to learn more about our heritage and do Jewish things, to implement the teachings, it becomes more than “just nice.” It becomes real.
