I have to admit to feeling a touch of melancholy about the approaching end to this project. Truly Reb Zalman has been with me with each new post. What better way to hold onto that for a tad longer with, what else, a story about stories.
The disciples then steeled themselves, certain that, true to the tradition, the Baal Shem Tov would necessarily answer such questions about a story with a story.
But the Baal Shem Tov, after a loving, lingering pause, responded, "Salvation lies in remembrance."
Thank you,
R' Mark
