The One Year Countdown

The young man looked at the paper

Tisha B’Av

It’s when he is officially finished

One year

Finished


What next?

The young man suddenly had a mischievous looking grin

Stupid young man

He can go anywhere in the world

But noooo

He’s gotta look at the most improbable thing to shoot for…


But how improbable?

Unrealistic?

Is it?

He asks his shiur rabbi

He asks the yeshiva mashpia

He asks his own mashpia

“I don’t see why you couldn’t, it’s a good goal”

“You’ll have to work hard, but it’s just a matter of you vs others”

“Absolutely go for it”


Hmm

Ok then

Suppose it’s not as far-fetched as he thought

It’s a good goal to have

And what an accomplishment it’d be!


One year to go
