A Quick Worrier – Kedoshim
Vayikra 19:26 “….do not rely on signs…”
The Avnei Nezer, Rav Avrohom Borenstein, was married to the daughter of the Kotzker Rebbe. They lived in dire poverty, yet he never seemed to be concerned with his plight. One day his frustrated wife asked him:
"Tell me why it is that our poverty does not concern you at all?" The Avnei Nezer answered:
"I worry as much as everyone else, but with one big difference. Your great father took me as a son-in-law because of my brilliant mind and that which takes others an entire day to think about, I am able to think through in a few moments. So while other poor people spend their entire day worrying and are consumed with their predicament, I spend a few moments every morning thinking about everything they can possibly think of during the entire day. At that point I can get on with all the other things on my daily agenda!"
Shabbat Shalom,
Rabbi
Halacha of the Week
Even though technically you may continue eating if you started before the zman of sefira, many times people forget to count if they daven early. Therefore, the minhag in
Rav Shlomo Zalman once told a bochur who davened with a late minyan for maariv in Yeshiva, that he should count without a bracha as soon as it becomes night and have in mind that he only wants to be yotzei with this counting if he forgets to count later on during Maariv with a bracha.

ON GUARD
We all feel very happy and safe on Shabbos thanks to Matcal, our Israeli security patrol, which also advises us on security matters. We only have enough funds to cover the next few weeks. We ask that you please contribute toward this fund so that we can continue this very valuable service uninterrupted through the summer months. Contact Tamar or drop off a check at the Aish office marked “Shabbos Security.”
