How will many celebrate the Jewish New Year (or Rosh Hashanah) in 2009?

Rosh Hashanah — a two-day holiday celebrated by millions of Jews worldwide — begins at sundown tonight. €œIt is a high moment,” said Rabbi Zvi Konikov, spiritual leader of the Chabad of the Space & Treasure Coasts, of the holiday. One of the most popular traditions for celebrants is to dip apples into honey as a wish for a sweet New Year.

Round loaves of Challah bread are also served to recognize the Kingship of God, Konikov said. €œIt should be something uplifting for every child and every adult,” Konikov added. Rosh Hashanah also begins a 10-day period of reflection known as the Days of Awe, and ends with a 24-hour period of fasting on Yom Kippur, or the Day of Atonement.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
