When was the last time you stopped to consider the people you know that have yet to meet their soulmate? Have you entertained the thought that you could be the missing link, the person they've been needing to make a connection? On the Day of Rest, take advantage of quiet time and let your mind stew with all the people that you know. Light your candles and ask that you be deserving of the privilege to make a match. There's no better time than Shabbat to behold the power of reuniting souls!

FridayLight looking to crown woman with $1,000! Do you know her?
FridayLight (www.fridaylight.org) is a global campaign focused around Shabbat candle lighting, celebrating the power women have to illuminate their surroundings and bring world peace. In honor of the upcoming festival of Purim - which is highlighted by the heroine Queen Esther - the "For Women, By Women" organization has launched a contest looking for modern-day Jewish Heroines.
Women of the world are invited to nominate themselves or someone they know. Their merit need not be epic (they don't have to be eradicating world hunger or anything like that!); any women you find deserving is a fine nominee! The winner will get $1,000 to be used towards her heroine cause!
It's quite simple:
1. Think of a women you know that deserves some recognition (it may even be YOU!).
2. Send a bio/profile of any length as well as a picture to blog@fridaylight.org by midnight [12:00 am EPT] Wednesday March 16th. Make sure to include what she would do with the $1,000 prize if she won!
3. Once your nominee is posted and open to voting/"likes," tell everyone you know about it and encourage them to "like" FridayLight on Facebook and vote on your nominee!
4. On March 27th, the nominee with the most votes will be crowned "FridayLight Purim Heroine" and win $1,000!
