Contemplate your link in the chain of history - as you settle into this meditation led by Julie Potiker, marking Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day. She completes the meditation by combining quotes from Paul Tsongas and Rabbi Tarfon.

Quotes:

"We are a continuum. Just as we reach back to our ancestors for our fundamental values, so we, as guardians of that legacy, must reach ahead to our children and their children. And we do so with a sense of sacredness in that reaching", Paul Tsongas

In Pirkei Avot -  Ethics of Our Father’s, Rabbi Tarfon taught, "It is not your responsibility to finish the work [of perfecting the world], but you are not free to desist from it either".
