If I had a Dyson


OK, it is a day and half before Pesach (Passover) officially starts (give or take a couple of hours), and I am doing my last minute cleaning. Many of my friends have beaten me to it days ago. I salute you wonder women. I admit, cleaning is not my favorite pastime but if I had a Dyson...

If I had a Dyson, everything would be spotless, shiny and free of annoying allergens around me. Just before Passover, Jewish households are going bonkers to clean and get rid of the last remnants of breadcrumbs or anything that is leavened (yep beer too). It is tense, serious and in some cases insane. You feel , you have entered the Passover Cleaning Olympics, unfortunately it isn't every 4 years, it is a yearly event. However,  no matter how tedious, frustrating or difficult it may be; we have been given a chance to clear house, literally and figuratively. Our traditions have given us an opportunity,  to get rid of the dirt, build-up, and everything that is negative around us.

If I had a Dyson, but I don't.  Nevertheless, it will not prevent me to clean, to make everything shine, to welcome Spring and free myself from everything and everyone that could have a negative influence on me. This is my Exodus, leave the Past behind, shed the unwanted layers and move forward!

So my friends, effectively we all do have our Dyson!!! Happy Cleaning!!!!


Chag Sameach!!!!!
