One Yom Kippur the rabbi was warning his congregation about the fragility of life. “One day everyone in this congregation is going to die,” he thundered from the bima.
Seated in the front row was a little old Jewish Grandmother who laughed out loud, when she heard this.
Irritated the Rabbi said, “What’s so funny?”
“Well!” said the Grandmother, “I’m not a member of this congregation.”
-Rabbi Dan Moskowitz
It is good to laugh, especially because we are all mortal.
