Diary Entry From My Journey #7

Tonight I participated in the simcha of the marriage of Chaim and Atara Eichen. It was SUCH a joyous simcha I think it would be worth it to go through seventy years of all of the trials and tribulations of this world in order to experience the joy of one such wedding.

Just as Chaim found his "crown" ["aishes chayil ATERES baala"] and Atara found her "life" ["Re'aih CHAIM im ha'isha asher ahavta"], so too should every one of my sweet friends find his or her bashert bimi'heira - especially those many people I met at the wedding who are waiting for their own special day.

Another ray of bright light in this dark bitter golus which will soon come to an end.
