This Tu B’shvat I planted the Tree of Life

The Torah is the wellspring from which all of us here on Jewcology.com draw from to irrigate our environmental projects and plans.

The Torah is also called the Tree of Life, and is planted in us.

There's a young boy in our community, not yet three years old. I had been planning for a while to start tutoring him in Jewish subjects, and today, Tu B'shvat it finally worked out that we were able to meet and learn. I introduced him to the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, with the hope that this Aleph seed will sprout and take root and flourish in his fertile mind, one day to become a towering cedar of knowledge and scholarship.
