Although I haven't practiced Judaism in more than 40 years, I find it interesting to note that virtually all of the Jewish holidays (with only one or two real exceptions) are 'festivals' rather than heavy, solemn occasions. A pretty happy bunch!

Thank you.

I don't practice the faith anymore either. Though I recognize the heritage and enjoy the festivities.
