Putting on Tefillin?

PUTTING ON TEFILLIN

I’ve become a bit more traditional in my less young years but the Tefillin act is not one in my daily/weekly occurrence… unless I’m asked and helped.  It’s a tradition that I find a bit confusing with where to wrap this way or that way and then the finger oh vey but if it means much to my traditional brother for me to share is the ritual who am I to refuse?  Yet many a man of the Jewish cloth will turn away their observant brethren  and I ask why? If done by a professional it only takes a few minutes of your time and if it could make this world or even the one doing this exercise a bit happy then it’s worth the wrap.  It may not normal occur in my daily routines  but when was the last time I held real leather anyway.  So give your traditional brothers their due and take a wrap if they ask if nothing else occurs at least you’ll make another’s day a bit more meaningful maybe even yours.
