They are meant to remind us of who we are and where we've come from. I'm not particularly Jewish, and I don't follow the dietary laws, yet every time I break them I'm reminded of who and what I am. You don't have to get the Seder right. You just have to have one to unite you with Jews past, present, and future.Jason A.

Thanks for posting your difficulties in maneuvering a non-Christian holiday in our culture. I'm not religious, so I think employers should be accommodating to all religious holidays. Although I commend you for thinking of the kids' education first.<br />Marlene at <a href="http://marlenemoss.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">On Writing and Riding</a>GSMarlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17558162486383585621noreply@blogger.com
