Today is day 20 of the omer. Instructions for counting the omer are found here.
And here’s today’s wisdom, powered by Etz Hayim members:
My Grandmother, born in 1889 in Ukraine, was a great lover of education. She could read prayer book Hebrew, daven, read and speak Russian, as well as a heavily accented English, The most memorable sentence of hers was “I love education.” I think she wanted to further her own education, but as a young girl of the late 19th century, in a highly Orthodox community she was not given the opportunity. So she passed the desire on to all 13 Grandchildren, and 22 Great-Grandchildren. .
