[HANASHIR:5901] Divorce

[Rachelle and Howard Shubert <notfranz...>]

Laura,

Just to clarify, since I was the one who posted the original question, I was
seeking a song which would express our women's Rosh Chodesh group's
emotional and spiritual support for one of our members who has just received
her get.  We are also exploring new rituals around divorce.  If anyone is
interested, I have decided to teach Carlebach's Ruach Elokim, which we will
sing in a circle around her.  I hope that it was obvious that the subject
line "music to get divorced by" was tongue in cheek, but I sincerely
apologize if I offended anyone.

Rachelle

> I missed the original posting, however, having gone throught the get
process I find this rather tasteless.

> Music, especially Debbie's prayers in song, did help me heal before and
after the actual get (and the subsequent civil custody trials).  But the
beis din and the actual moment when the get was dropped in my hands felt
like the sound of the dirt hitting a casket.
