Last week, several people replied that they enjoyed the challenge of the metal mettle message, and thankfully nobody called me out on the typo.
(Not a significant typo as long as anyone inspired to go start alloying brass will do a bit more research beyond my email.)
By the way, a further hint to the question for the table about "pure gold" — the process of purifying a metal is symbolic of refining oneself.
What I mean is: did you ever go to a high school or college reunion and notice that some people are exactly the same as they were so many years ago while others seem like completely different people?
The entire point of life - per Jewish wisdom - is to become a better person, day by day, week by week, month by month, year by year. If you're the same person you were a year ago, something's wrong.
Now, I called today's missive, "What's your name?" because a Jewish name encodes the person's personal mission. If you know your name, that means that you know your mission. If you are growing, and feel like you are headed somewhere, you may know your mission even though you don't know your name. But someone who is not growing very possibly doesn't know his name.
So, Kimosabee: What's your name? What's your mission?
Shabbat Shalom
