December 19, 2024
The 19th of Kislev is a holiday only for Chabad. This is the day that the Alter Rebbe was released from prison in Russia. He taught everyday Jews how to be Jews. He is the founder of Chabad and Hasidic Judaism.

Today I went to a Farbrengen and dinner to celebrate the today. I learned that it is not only the liberation of the Alter Rebbe, but it is also the Chabad New Year in the sense that those who studies Tanya finished it and will now begin again. It is a fresh start to being a new person.

It was a good dinner and enjoyed the company. I admit that I didn't understand everything that was said, but some of the stories were good. The food was good even though I did get picked on for not eating the tomatoes or mushrooms. After not eating the box of cookies that I was given earlier this week, I can say that I enjoyed kosher cookies for desert.

It was a good night with a little learning and little bit of good music and a lot of good company.
