One Another

THE SCENE: LAST WEEK AT a medical office.

It was a strictly routine matter, but one which involved removing my cabbie cap and disclosing my kippah.

“How was your Chanukah?” the technician asked.

“It was good,” I replied. “Lots of light in a very dark time.”

His eyes held mine. “Tell me about it. I celebrate Chanukah too.”

    I was in Trader Joe’s and checking out and the clerk asked me if I’d like an
    advent calendar for my dog. I saidn “no, thank you, she’s Jewish” and he said “so is mine.”
