A Sandwich for Moshiach




Yesterday at around 1PM i was hungry. I skipped breakfast as usual (had 2 large coffee's instead), and the basic dilemma started. Should i go to Mendy's (released time special) or Kingston bakery (they also have sushi?) or make my way all the way down to Bunch 'o bagels (sorry we are out of that too).

I ended up letting my feet walk me into Albany baker. I asked for a lox sandwich, and was ready to pay. Standing at the counter was Naftoli Astulin with a credit card: I need miles, I'm paying for you.

In fact he paid for everyone in the store, the lady in front of me had $40 of groceries, behind me 2 bottles of milk (OK, that one was his daughter).

He said: it helps bring Moshiach, and the more you talk about moshiach the closer he comes.

He asked that we all do soothing little for Moshiach: here is what I'm doing, reminding everyone that we can all do something to bring him closer.

If you're not sure what to do, meet me at the Kretchme at 2:00 today.
