My mom is 70, I will be 42, and today I am married 7 years, what do all of these numbers have in common? The number 7 is in every one, and it is amazing how my mom is in awe of how her life has had transitional years every seven years. Thank God in the last seven years we have had three amazing children, and I really do feel that now it is time for me to keep growing in my own gifts to give back and serve.
In Judaism, there is also focus on the number 7, we work the whole week and on the seventh day we rest, we start our week on Sunday and rest on Friday night to Saturday night. Also in agriculture there is Shmita, here is a brief explanation, http://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/562077/jewish/Shemitah-101.htm. I love how the article explains the many reasons it is good to take a break every seven years on many levels.
My mom was in town, and life is full, my husband reminded me a few days before that it is almost our anniversary, and today he offered to have lunch together, and we have just had a beautiful evening together. It has been a non stop ride, and today I feel appreciated, loved, connected, and complete.
