It's a New Year for the Jewish people. If you feel old, consider this: We're embarking on the year 5,780! I know. It's a challenge to wrap my brain around this.
Because a fresh start is both feasible and welcome, though, I invite you to celebrate Rosh Hashanah* too.
Let's work towards a more peaceful, safe year across the globe.
Shana Tova! (Hebrew for "Happy New Year.")
*The start of the 10-day Jewish New Year. We dip apple slices in honey, then eat and enjoy, for a sweet new year.

Here I am with two siblings in 1969 (Jewish New Year 5,730). My other brother, Jonathan, was a mere embryo. {Technology was a lot more primitive back then. Thus, he's not pictured. =)}
We wish you many moments of sweetness in the year ahead, along with greatly improved peace throughout the world.
