It was the first day of Selichos, Motzei Shabbos, 12:30 am. I never enjoyed being up so late, and I never looked forward to having to saying Selichos at that time of night.

WHILE DISCUSSING THE death of Queen Elizabeth II the other day with someone, being 92 they mentioned that they never thought they would see another king reign in their lifetime.

WE HAVE BEEN saying Tehillah 27, L’Dovid since Rosh Chodesh Elul. In it is a very famous line that was also made into a song
