This week has somehow been both full speed and slow pace.
A week between full speed and slowing down: family travel, art, Shabbat, CAPTURE 2026 at the Coral Gables Museum, community projects, and discovering Theo of Golden at just the right moment.

A Few Ants and a Few Scars: The Spiritual Meaning of Ants 🐜
After several unexpected encounters with ants — and a few scars from fire ant bites — I started wondering about the spiritual meaning and symbolism of ants.
