After my dad died, I tried to cope by keeping busy: a day job, a side hustle, socialising and working out. But I kept bursting into tears in public. At a Quaker meeting, it was as if someone had turned down the volume of the world

We offer our love, support and solidarity with the Jewish community, in Manchester and beyond, following the horrifying antisemitic attack on a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.

This friend speaks my mind.

"Every one of us has a choice. Do we seek to nurture the seed within us which leads us to love our neighbour? Or do we harden our hearts so that the seed perishes on rocky ground?

I choose Love, and I pray every day to be open to it, led by it, and shaped by it. And I pray that as each person turns to the compassion within them, this will lead to a more peaceful world."

Earlier today, General Secretary Tim Gee delivered the BBC Daily Service on the theme .
