A milestone- I thought.  It was 40 years ago today.  The day for which I had longed, cajoled, suffered injuries, blockaded federal and college buildings.  The ending of the Vietnam “War”.  You know, one of the first wars we fought that were never declared.

What’s going on? Please tell me!

Have you ever considered how your client views your law firm (or your tax preparation or medical specialty or engineering- even order fulfillment) firm?   They come, they ask questions, they give you money, and then they wait…and sometimes wait and wait.  That whole process is something you can change to demonstrate your ‘value added’ components to your clients/customers.

The third book of the bible, Vayikra (Leviticus), has an interesting pronouncement.  This book (with its ten parshiot- weekly readings,  27 chapters in all) is concerned with priestly duties (hence Leviticus, of the Levi tribe, of which a select portion were the Kohanim- priests), sacrifices, and the laws.  And, no, sacrifices are no longer effected.  (They stopped with the destruction of the Great Temple.)

It’s that time of year.  Spring cleaning.  Many of you may not know how old this tradition really is.   It started out some 3000 years ago- when it was a commandment to remove all the chametz from one’s life.  Now, chametz literally means “leavened items”.   Because the holiday of Pesach (Passover), which celebrates the liberation of the Jews, also involved a commandment to destroy all the chametz in one’s possession.  One is not permitted to see any chametz in one’s domain for the entire holiday.

An auspicious day.  Today is the birthday of someone who has made a big difference in my life.  I met Sam 39 years ago.  He was a young man then (and I was a kid).    We made great things together.  And, I’m honored to have him as a friend.
