A man once came into a beautiful ballroom and inquired about the occasion being celebrated."It's a wedding!" exclaimed one of the guests.
"Beautiful!" he said. Then, looking in on the joyous crowd, he continued. "It's obvious who the bride is - she's the one all in white. But, who is the groom?"
"The one with the black tie and long black jacket, dancing over there..." answered the guest, pointing towards the crowd.
The visitor was puzzled, seeing many dancing men with black ties and long black jackets.
"How do I know which is the groom?" he asked.
Cleverly, the guest answered: "Just wait till the end of the wedding. Whichever one takes the bride home with him... He is the groom!"
***
On Simchas Torah, everyone rejoices; many are dancing.
But which one is The Groom?
Which one is the one who is committing to live his life with The Bride, and heed her every beck and call?
Wait till the dancing ends, and see who is the one who takes the bride home with him at the end of the festivities.
Are we just another dancing guest? Or are we taking The Bride - The Torah - home with us?
