She had attended a pottery class, and some frum ladies at the class turned off the background music because they needed to mourn.<br /><br />Why, wondered the non-Jew, are you allowed to have fun by making pottery, chit-chatting and laughing with friends, but you can't listen to music? She figured that if you're going to have three weeks of mourning, the important thing should be not going out and acting frivolous with friends. A little background music didn't seem to be such a big deal.ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04376537400767851942noreply@blogger.com
