Returning from Limmud conference in Warwick University last week, I'm really feeling the love. Love for the new generation of youth (which doesn't count as me anymore and hasn't done so for at least 10 years, but hey). They seem more vibrant, talented and passionate than we ever were. I feel love for our community who manage every year, to stage such an inclusive and diverse event to which anyone can contribute. And I feel a renewed love of knowledge.
This is my third Limmud and each time I have come back hoping to expand my tentative foray into the world of Jewish learning. Even if I don't manage to sustain my interest for longer than a week - which, knowing my track record, is likely - at least I will always have Limmud next year.
