A Blessing For a Friend

As it is not my nature to push or order people around, I requested to be in charge of the area immediately outside the Rebbe's car door -- to open it as soon as the [Lubavitcher] Rebbe arrives and to close it as soon as the Rebbe is seated.

Connection: Seasonal -- Lag b'Omer!

Chasid or Rebbe?

"Wow!" thought the local Jew. "Not only is he a tzadik, he is also humble. A true tzadik!"

Connection: Seasonal -- Thursday, Iyar 11, the 192nd yahrzeit of the Rofshitzer.
