[Music] I want to share with you something that's truly remarkable. Last week I was sitting with my friend Rabincian Klatskco and he told me that recently he purchased the strangest object in the world. A clipper set, a manual clipper set that was actually from Awitz. It was used to shave the prisoners. Said to him, why would you want something like that? And listen to what he said. He says, you know, when hits the day after tishov, most people transition in an instant from a from morning to regular life. They jump into the pool, they crank up the music, they throw in the load of laundry, they turn on their shader. He says, when I take my first shave after the three weeks, I don't want to just jump right into normal life. I want to feel like I'm still holding on to the aisan in some small tangible way. So I bought this clipper set and I'm only going to use it once a year when I take that first snip after on the 10th of A. I'll still be holding on to a I'll still be holding on to tish above to the nine days and the three weeks in some way shape or form. I'm not telling you that you have to go out there and buy an antique set from Awitz. But do something to say that no I'm not running away from it. Don't do a countdown to the second and then burst the music on. Maybe take five minutes and say I'm holding on to that inspiration that I have as that ais will turn into goolah. [Music]
