In spite of all the bad press that Friday the 13th gets (you know that Friday the 13th is rumored to be a "bad luck" day) we are celebrating today, Friday the 13th as a great 3 in 1 combina! How do we figure that, you ask? Well, let's just take the number 13 - and turn it around -- 3 and 1 - the 3 in 1 perfect "combina!"
And today's "winners" are:
Number 1 - (and we'll follow the life-cycle chronology for this) - Happy Birthday to my daughter Chava Sara -- who is (Hashem should love her) 17 - Baruch Hashem.
Number 2 - the official "welcome as a Jewish Male" to your Heritage, the People of Israel, to Yehuda Reuven Gusovsky who's Brit Milah (circumcision) is today (was this morning).
Number 3 - the Yahrzeit of Rav Avrohom Yitzhak Hacohen Kook, who's 75th Yahrzeit is today.
Birthday, Brit, and Yahrzeit - The Cycle of Life. We should have the privilege and honor to celebrate these events with our loved ones, our friends and community - even our "world-wide" neighborhood - B'simcha, B'ahava, (in happiness and w/love) and in Peace.
Remember 3:30 - 5: "Not for Kids Only" Childrens' Hour
5 - 6:30: On the road to Shabbos - where Jerry meets Shlomo...
and then Motzoei Shabbos, starting again about 9:30 PM, Melave Malke meets Saturday Night, right here on Radio Free Nachlaot!
