na’aseh v’nishma

na’aseh v’nishma

There’s a concept called na’aseh v’nishma; which means: “we will do and we will hear” or “we will do and we will understand.”* It’s about doing your faith, and coming to understand what it is you already believe as you practice it.

Meet Happy
Simple Felicity is, at its heart, a blog based on the unshakeable belief that happiness really isn't all that complicated. It's often found in the simplest of things: good food, good books, and good company.
