The year 2021 is not exactly ending on a high, except for high infection rates, but we did share many spectacular and miraculous times highlights over the past year. This Ta Shma is dedicated to the past 365 days in an effort to redeem its final hours, and to remind us all that no one, no thing, and no year should be defined by it's darkest moments.

In the Beit Rabban tradition of ending each week with SHAhighlights to help us appreciate more deeply, feel more connected to each other, recognize our accomplishments, and go into Shabbat with a smile.... I hope you enjoy this selection of 21 of some of my favorite Beit Rabban highlights from 2021 (see below). May it put a smile on your face and remind all of us that there is always the possibility of joy.
