Description

This shiur discusses the Halacha that one recite a Shehechiyanu or Mechayi Hameisim upon seeing a close friend after 30 days or 12 months. Poskim discuss why we seem to not make this bracha nowadays. The lessons to take from this shiur are the significance of friendships, and the importance of not taking in-person interactions for granted.
