Team Meeting and "Happiness Minute"

This week's Happiness Minute will develop an idea introduced in the context of our Mishna studies. The mishna discusses the latest time recite the evening shema. The sons of Rabban Gamliel, one of the opinions in the Mishna, arrive home late from a wedding and must determine if they have missed the deadline for reciting shema.

Our sages tell us: "It is a mitzvah to make a bride and groom happy." Why? We'll learn a key concept of happiness during tomorrow's team meeting, which will highlight the concept of preparation. It's a skill we're developing in anticipation of the upcoming holidays.
