Havdalah: A Holy Goodbye and a Hopeful Beginning
Havdalah—meaning “separation” in Hebrew—is the brief, beautiful ceremony that marks the transition from the sacred time of rest into the ordinary days of work. It’s the thread that ties holy to humble, rest to labor, and spirit to body.
The Beauty of Order
The creation story is ultimately about freedom—freedom through order, through simplicity, and through the space created by boundaries. When each part of creation has its own role, everything flows together in harmony, and life flourishes. This is what we strive for on the homestead: a balanced, ordered life where each piece fits together, where our crops grow, animals thrive, and we find joy in the work.
