I heard a teaching last evening
most of which I had already understood
but
for whatever reason
what I heard last night
became alive and very very real
during the days
when the feet that had yet to be pierced
walked the dust of this earth
it was the highest goal
for young boys
to be chosen to follow a rabbi
some were
and
some were not
it was some of these rejected ones
that the Rabbi chose
the teachings of a rabbi were called his yoke
but it is only one Rabbi who says His yoke was easy
the chosen ones would follow their rabbi everywhere
listening
learning
watching
being
the benediction last evening was
may you forever be covered in the dust of your Rabbi
