It is hard for me, this day most of all. I never met the Rebbe. My father did, my brother did, though I doubt he remembers, he was just a few months old. But I never did. Finding a connection to the Rebbe is very hard for me, for this reason. True, one does not need to know the Rebbe to be connected to him, but, it helps.

I was too little to really understand what a Rebbe is, what he does, when he was physically here for us, and then I was too much a rebel to care. Now, I'm at a loss. Intellectually, I know there is still a connection, but it so very hard to feel it.

Maybe that's the point.
