Our inbox is sagging from the influx of teacher appreciation ideas and experiences, which shows that even if we’re not always able to carry out all that we want to do, our community has an overwhelming appreciation of the devoted teachers and melamdim spending their days in the classrooms. If you have what to say, we’d still love to hear it! In the meantime, let’s get practical before the winter frost hits. How do you maintain or clean your windows? Especially the outside of it. And the new ones that slide outward when they open are even more complicated to wash. Did you figure out a way to get your mop (or a special mop) out there to do the job? Risk your cleaning lady’s life while you say Tehillim in the next room? Tried the robot that can be stuck outside? We’d love to hear your window-washing tips and experiences!

Sandy Boyer li ed the receiver and listened for a moment. “Sorry,” she said, for the tenth time that morning. “Mr. Weinfeld cannot be disturbed.” As she returned the phone to her desk, Sandy glanced over at Mr. Weinfeld’s closed o ce door. She had been his receptionist for over ten years and in all that time, she had never seen her boss look so concerned. e o ce was like a morgue this morning. Hunched over his desk, David Weinfeld heard footsteps in the corridor. He knew who it was before the door opened. Sandy wouldn’t have let anyone else in today, a er his strict instructions. Still, he waited a few minutes before looking up from his computer. Albert Silverstein stood in the doorway, displaying his usual engaging smile. “Ready for lunch, David?” he asked cheerfully. en, catching sight of David’s furrowed brow and slumped posture, he inched back uncertainly. "Anything wrong?" “Wrong?” David echoed. What was wrong? Everything was wrong. David didn’t even know where to start. It was tempting to ask Albert’s advice, but David knew that this was something he had to handle himself. “No, nothing’s wrong,” he nally said. Albert looked at him dubiously. “Did you say something about lunch?” David said, in an e ort to play it cool. “Sounds good. Let’s grab something to eat.” Albert glanced at his friend as the two of them made their way out of David’s o ce at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. e two men had started out years before at the New York Fed, and they had taken business courses together at C.U.N.Y. Eventually, David had become executive vice president of the bank's nancial services department, while Albert headed the business development section under David’s supervision. Albert thought back to his rst encounter with David, twenty years beforehand: “Hi. I'm Albert Silverstein."

His sheep were his world, and though re ned and pleasant, he was illiterate – a simple shepherd. His parents were converts, who couldn’t provide him with an even basic education. Life was hard and demanding, and there was no time for the luxuries of yore – learning and scholarship. And so he lived his quiet life, tending his herd near the rolling hills, under deep blue skies. He knew little and needed even less, as he wandered the pastures, his eyes re ecting integrity, purity, and deep inner nobility. It seemed as if he was incapable of hate, un t to loathe. It was true, with one exception. He did not like Torah – Scholars. He despised them. It came to pass that the daughter of his rich master saw his sterling qualities and married him with one condition: He should dedicate his days to learning Torah. At forty, he didn’t even know the Alef – Beis. How realistic was it to expect him to turn into a learned student? He was a middle – aged man, as educated as a three year old – who would teach him? Besides, he hated Scholars, would he now become one of them? He pulled himself up by his bootstraps. e ignorance, the shame, the revulsion, he fought it all. Together with his young son, he came into the Kindergarten class to start from the beginning; Learning the Aleph – Beis. He held on to one side of the board while his son held onto the other side of the board. As one, they studied and memorized: Aleph, Beis, Gimmel… Twenty four years later he returned, at the head of twenty four thousand pupils, a venerated sage. Where would we be today without his strength, his ability to overcome challenges and build himself up into the leader of the generation? Rebbi Akiva, the symbol of resilience. Twenty four thousand talmidim. e future sages and teachers of the generation. e pride and hope of their Rabbi and their people. All of them gone, taken by the plague. e nation was in mourning, the world was desolate. Who will teach Torah? How will the word of Hashem continue to spread? Once again, Rebbi Akiva pulled himself up by his bootstraps. Instead of sinking into the mire of depression, he started all over again. With joy and dedication, hope and energy. e ve students that he taught and imbued became the future of Klal Yisroel. Reb Meir, Reb Yehudah, Reb Shimon, Reb Yosi, and Reb Elazar. e Torah we learn, is theirs. Almost all of Shas is based on their teachings. Rebbi Akiva the symbol of renewal. 8 He was a gangster.
