Tonight marks the first night of Hanukkah, may it be the beginning of a wonderful holiday! Here is a classic video from Adam Sandler! Happy Hanukkah to every Jews out there... Adam is just one of the famous Jews in Hollywood.



One of the central pieces of celebration is the lighting of the hanukkiah (the well-known eight branched candelaber). The Chanukah is, unlike many other jewish holidays, not of biblical origin and therefore there are less mandatory practices.

Jewish holidays doesn’t make much appearance in my life however I didn’t miss the start of Chanukah (the festival of lights) on Sunday. I just wanted to wish a happy Hanukkah to all those who are celebrating and may God bless Israel. Thanks for continuing to read here. Whatever your belief, celebrate all that you’ve been blessed with.

I have a number of Christian friends and I love it when they share their faith with me and remind me of how important Christmas is to them. I also have the privilege of knowing some wonderful Muslims and again, I respect them for their faith just as I’m not shy about sharing mine when I’m around them.

To be safe, I just greet them "Happy Holidays!" If they want to be more specific, it's up to them.
