Oy! So alone.
They say Chassidim zainen keinmol nisht elent!
I'm really finding that to be a challenge.
We are having Hakafos Friday night, because everyone is anyways going to show up then.
We cannot have a Minyan on Shabbos day, because then nobody will show up on Sunday for Simchas Torah, so I'm left picking which other service is most important, so that I can get on the phone tomorrow and convince the community to join me for the Minyan...
So Shabbat morning I wrote that we will be having Yizkor at 11:30. Maybe one person will show up. I don't know. But I'll be here waiting for them.
Motzaei Shabbos I can maybe squeeze together a Minyan, but if I get people to come then, then I won't have a Minyan to read the Torah from... So again, I think that Sunday morning is more important for the Minyan... Thus, we are not having a Minyan on Motzaei Shabbos. I will be doing Hakafos all by myself and dancing around the Bima alone... I will try to Shlep one or two people to Farbreng with... But what can we do?? I don't even have my wife and child with me! Oy!
How will I say L'chaim alone? How will I have the Yomtov meal alone? How will I do hakafos alone? Is this what a Shliach is supposed to go through? Should I have gone to New York and left the community without a Simchas Torah? These thoughts of regret are driving me nuts!
If I don't write into the Rebbe tomorrow and ask him to make my Simchas Torah epes worth it... then I am truly Grohb.
So Sunday morning I hope to be having our second Minyan (if people show up). We will dance again. Everyone who is Jewish will get an Aliya to the Torah and it will be a special day for me and hopefully for the community as well... Let's hope and pray.
Gutt Yom Tov!
Again, I am all alone.
I miss my family for two reasons now... One is purely selfish; Since I'm getting lonely here in Cabo all by myself, I miss the company that I had all this time. The second reason is much deeper and more "Mushy"... The are unmarried folk who read this blog too you know, so I will have to leave it to the imagination.
Again, a Gutt Yomtov. A Holiday that we truly become the feet of the Torah. That we throw ourselves into the gush of Torah waters and become submerged with Aibishter and emes!
