But then again, they also say that not enough light can make a person depressed. Somehow there must be balance in the light and praying is what helps to bring that balance. I am sure that meditating also helps to bring someone balance. Being balanced and having balance must be very important to all of us. Thank you for pointing this out.<br /><br />God bless.Mrsupolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01563854387767106508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-6783261577609189672010-05-16T09:49:55.732-04:002010-05-16T09:49:55.732-04:00The Bat Mitzvah girl's question was why we cov...The Bat Mitzvah girl's question was why we cover our heads and whether God cares.
