Orthodox Jewish women (even the ultra-Orthodox like myself) have a richer life and more opportunities than you’d think.
A pictorial thread 🧵
We get degrees.
We adore our kids
We lecture and join panels
We learn music (and art and dance)
We get vaccinated!
We celebrate age-old holidays and rituals
And more rituals
We go on way too many date nights
We cook and bake - too much
Sometimes our work is deemed important enough for the big screen - AND the small screen
We save lives
and save lives
We travel
Sometimes we’re loud enough and get asked to parties (even if we don’t love the pol) and invited to D.C.
We (also) love shoe shopping
We lead complex, multi-layered lives that honor our values, traditions, and our unique ways of glorifying and sanctifying Gods name.
And every Rosh Hashana I choose to continue to live my life thus, reinstating Hashem as my king.
