What if repairing what we've broken doesn't require a grand gesture, but simply the courage to begin?
On Shabbat Shuvah, Rabbi Conover reflects on the ways we stumble, the possibility of turning back, and the surprising power of words to begin the work of repair. Through the story of a shoemaker working late into the night by the light of a nearly spent candle, she explores a powerful lesson for the days between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur: as long as the candle is still burning, it is still possible to mend.

As Yom Kippur approaches, Rabbi Conover reminds us that teshuvah doesn't demand that we fix everything at once. We can return step by step, stitch by stitch, using our words to move back toward the people, relationships, and parts of ourselves from which we have wandered.
