I’m A (un)Limited Edition

I love the BeltLine, I love Atlanta! 

The other day walking on the BeltLine I saw a person in a t-shirt that said “I’m A Limited Edition”. 

My first thought was; “Me too”! In fact, all of us are Limited Editions, that’s why there is only one of each of us.

If we weren’t a limited edition we wouldn’t be here, because we’d be superfluous and nothing in Hashem’s wonderful world is extra.

This Shabbos is Gimmel (3) Tammuz, the 28^th Yurzeit of the Rebbe.  

Many things have been said and have been written about the Rebbe’s greatness, vision, love, scholarship, wisdom, etc.

On a personal level, for me, each and every day, I’m reminded that there was someone in my life, that knew I was a limited edition and that in there lay my unlimited ability.

In a post 3 Tammuz world, we turn to the Rebbe’s teachings and the spiritual energy and inspiration of a Tzadik even after they have passed, to remember that we are limited editions and are empowered with a G-dly soul that has unlimited powers.

There are many videos of the Rebbe’s encouragement of song.  I imagine that encouragement reminding me each day, that if I’ve been given another day on this Earth it is because my limited edition is still needed.  

I wish for you and for each and every Human being to remember this; we are unique, we are powerful, we have something to accomplish on this Earth that only we can do.

28 in Hebrew is Koach – Strength.   Perhaps this is the year that we all unleash the power within, the Koach, the Unlimited version of ourselves!

Have a great and uplifting Shabbos! And I hope you’ll join me for Friday night Shabbos dinner or Shabbos day services with our scholar in residence.  All the info available here.
