How a Torah Talks
Irvine, CA [CHI] — It could have been one of those simple and nice Chabad events where people come to socialize and celebrate a special occasion. After all, how really inspiring could it be to watch a person writing? I myself have been to a Siyum Sefer Torah many times. Sure, there is the Jewish music playing in the background, or special food that might be served. But this one was different. Not just that the program was different, but the magical experience of something really spiritual happening. This was an event that I have never witness before – IT WAS REAL!

I am the guy that would probably greet you in the morning with a smile and say ‘Good morning’ if I saw you.
I am writing because of the funny looks you always give back in return.
The average reaction of a Lubavitcher to someone telling himher ‘Good morning’ is one of shock, confusion and bewilderment. Most times when I’ll greet someone with a hearty ‘Good morning!’ they’ll stare at me, their eyes bulging from their sockets wondering what planet I hail from, and sometimes they’ll just collapse down to the floor in a dead faint (either literally or figuratively); that’s the reaction of most Frum people.
