R’ Yaakov Klein
Believe it or not, it’s that time of year again! Winter seems to be slowly losing its icy grip on the world as the days grow longer and the warmth of spring begins to cautiously emerge. Even the most stubborn snowdrifts are melting, soon to be forgotten by gleeful children whose parents (to their great relief) have given up nagging them to put on a coat before heading out to play. The gravity of Tu B’Shevat a thing of the past, hopeful trees have begun to blossom, joyously bearing their bountiful new year’s blessing to a thawing world. Channeling the deepest spiritual energies, nature is beginning to waken from her deep and tortured slumber. It’s Adar! A month of joy and celebration. Adar! A month of new beginnings.

By Rabbi Berach Steinfeld  
                In Gemara Brachos 8b and Menachos 99b we learn from the fact the broken pieces of the first luchos were kept inside the Aron in the mishkan that we have to be careful with a zaken who forgot his learning because of an illness. Rashi clarifies that this refers to a talmid chacham who forgot his learning via illness or because he did not have parnassa and had to go to work.
