Don't Worry Be Happy

לזכות ולברכה לשמואל אלכסנדר בן נעכא גיטל

Rashi says [Bamidbar 29/18] that the 98 lambs we bring on succos are in order to cancel out the 98 curses in sefer dvarim. The Sochochover Rebbe explained  that the reason for all of the curses is because we didn't serve Hashem with simcha, and succos is "zman simchaseinu" so we fix it.
