The book of offerings opens with a call. Small aleph, quiet voice, a G-d who invites rather than compels.
The word vayikra is written with a small aleph. The commentators read Moshe's humility into the letter: he was called, but he did not amplify the calling.
Every serious life is organized around some call, a vocation, a responsibility, a person we cannot look away from. The question is whether we answer with the smallest aleph or the loudest ego.
This week, listen for the small aleph. What is being asked of you quietly, without spectacle?
