It seems small to me compared to some of these pther stories I’ve heard, but I’ll share it nonetheless. I was playing in a sports game today and two teammates of mine got into a real heated argument about the game. Without going into detail, there was a lot of animosity between them. My teammates and I tried to get them to drop it, which they were able to a little but (although it did flare up at times during the game). After the game, which we ended up winning, I said “Shalom for Charlotte” – you guys dont have to see eye to eye on everything but lets not have such animosity here. A little bit of calm talking and a few seconds later they were agreeable again and the animosity was gone.

I dont know if it was because of what I said, or some other factor, but I hope that it was a Z’chus for Charlotte. Everyone isn’t going to agree all the time, thats just life – but being able to disagree *agreeably* is the key, and I’m glad that was able to end up happening here.
