While I’m all for a l’chaim now and then, soda is not enough of an incentive. If the Kentucky Uncles and cousins are making an appearance, please drop me a line!
Back to shidduchim, while I like the analogy of musical chairs, it struck me this morning (yes, during shacris, sorry to admit, I know, I know, I need to work on that) that some readers may have taken offense to the idea that we refer to this serious business as a “game” So rather than think of this as the musical chairs game we played in kindergarden, I think a more appropriate comparison would be visiting a chair showroom.
You need to find one that fits your budget, your taste and most inportant, your needs. The finest chair is of little value to you, if it does not fit your lifestyle. And just like we don’t allow a salesperson to talk us into choosing something that we don’t feel right about, if they cannot show you what you have in mind, there are other stores to shop at.
And like all shopping experinces, you can drive yourself nuts by endlessly looking, or you can determine your needs before heading out and zero in on whats right for you.
Singles! Take it from us married folks.. you can do this! Don’t allow the fear factor to damper your attiude. We did it, and so can you. B’hatzlocha, and b’korov, mamash!
