Despite all the talk about Community Council elections lately, I find I can’t really bring myself to care too much about who’s in and who’s out. My apathy is partially due to the fact that I don’t really know what the Community Council does, but I think the bigger reason might be that like other women in Crown Heights, I can neither run nor vote in these elections.

As is known, Chassidim are always “Besimcha” serve G-D with joy, and even during the nine days of Menachem Av, when we mourn the destruction of the Temple, we also are to make an effort, within the limitations of “Halachah” Jewish law to be happy by making a Siyum every night until the 15th of Menachem Av and a party thereafter.

Be that as it may, there is at least one valuable lesson that seems to mimic politics:
