Jews w/ Tattoos - Ep 12: Jessie Duke - Finding Yourself Through Finding Community

Meet Jessie Duke, a wonderful human being with a beautiful zest for life and self-exploration. Jessie teaches us the valuable lessons of being in touch with one's ancestry, never being ashamed of who you are, and finding yourself by exploring the world. She uses her tattoo, the Shehehiyanu, to remind herself just how significant life can be at any given moment.

Shehehiyanu text:

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ‎	Blessed are You, Lord,	Baruch atah Adonai
אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הַעוֹלָם‎	our God, King of the Universe,	Elohenu melekh ha'olam
שֶׁהֶחֱיָנוּ וְקִיְּמָנוּ‎	who has granted us life and sustained us,	shehecheyanu vekiymanu
וְהִגִּיעָנוּ לַזְּמַן הַזֶּה‎׃‎	and allowed/let us [to] arrive at this Time.	vehigi'anu lazman hazeh.
