I thought you would appreciate this "mistake" that turned out to be just
perfect for Purim...
The local newspaper - Red Rock News - in Sedona, Arizona, listed my weekly
column on the religion page at the very top this week (They rotate the notices
from all the churches and our synagogue), and added a heading about our Purim
Celebration, plus a graphic they found somewhere. At first glance I assumed it
would be part of a Megillah scroll, but as I looked more closely I saw it was
actually a page of a Yom Kippur Machzor... upside down!!! So I thought,
what a silly mistake they made.... and then.... I realized, No, how absolutely
perfect!!!
Yom ha-Kippurim Yom k'Purim!!!! The Day of Atonement is like Purim!

I realized that they had taught me something about the deeper meanings of
Purim that I thought I had known, but now "got it" in a new way!!!
Had to share!!
Hag Purim Sameach!
