Girls think minyan is this hugely big deal. For many guys, meh. You win some, you lose some, you get plenty of chances. I ain’t talking about what it should be–I’m talking about what it is.
This is what it is:- Get used to attending a Minyan now, during your youth; and of-course arriving on time at the Minyan, which for Schachris means 5 minutes before the Minyan is called for, so that you are clad with Tallis & Tefillin when services commence.
Don’t wait for the unfortunate day you have to recite Kaddish, and then you have 2 tragedies 2 contend with concurrently:- The loss of the parent, and having to acclimatize to attending each & every Minyan, and always getting there on time.
Watching women reading some Siddur on the subway with all the Tumoh around,{which men don’t do out of respect for their Tallis & Tefillin} & watching for their stop, so that they don’t have to make a time allowance at home to Daven before commuting, really cheapens the concept of “Da Lifnei Mi Atoh Omed”
