Shavuot count-down: Day 38 of counting the Omer. Using Kabbalistic symbology for counting the Omer - the days between the 2nd night of Pesach and the start of Shavuot - tonight begins the Tiferet of Yesod: Compassion in Bonding. Rabbi Simon Jacobson's meditation for this day of the Omer:
Bonding needs to be not only loving but also compassionate, feeling your friend's pain and empathizing with him. Is my bonding conditional? Do I withdraw when I am uncomfortable with my friend's troubles?
(More on counting the Omer here)
