Oi vai iz mir!

Dear Rabbi,

I walked down the busy footpath, knowing I was late for an important meeting, when my eye fell upon one of those unfortunate, homeless vagabonds that are found in every city these days.

Wearing what can only be described as rags, and carrying every worldly possession in two plastic bags, my heart was touched by this person's condition.

Some people turned to stare. Others quickly looked away as if the sight would somehow contaminate them.

Recalling some long ago Sunday school admonition to "care for the sick, feed the hungry, and clothe the naked," I was moved by some powerful inner urge to reach out to this unfortunate person.

Yes, where some people saw only rags, I saw a hidden beauty. A small voice inside my head called, "Reach out! Reach out and touch this person!"

So I did..........

Wow!
I won't be in Shul this Saturday!


In hospital
*Thanks, Daryn
