Sefira – A lease on life
A very old and feeble man once came to visit R. Zilberstein in Bnei Brak, before the beginning of Sefiras Haomer, (the counting of the Omer), to pose a question:
“Rebbe, I am over a hundred years old and the doctors tell me that I have only weeks to live. I know that there are opinions that if you know that you will be unable to complete the count that you should not begin, because there is an opinion that the Brocho is only for a complete counting. Therefore perhaps I should not begin to count with a Brocho!”
The Rabbi answered him:
“My good man, sometimes a child wants a candy from his parents, but his parents do not want him to have. How does he get the candy? He makes a Brocho of SheHakol, and the parents have to give him the candy to save him from having made a Brocho L’vatolo (blessing in vain). So I recommend that you begin the count with a Brocho and according to the opinion that the count is one complete count, HaShem will be “forced” to let you complete the count.”
And so it was. The man lived until after Shavous and then passed away!!
