Jewish Cemetery

There’s a rule in the mystery of the cosmos… Some call it karma. It’s all about the circle of life. It’s about the mystery of how we interact with each other. The circle works this way: God wants a world of give and take. Well – actually He wants a world of give. The only problem is that if there is nobody available to take, then there can be no giving. Giving can only take place in a world where someone lacks…

Siyum Yeshivas Iyun Halachah – and a Great Lesson in Humilty

Books

Those who know me know how much I love books. There’s something soul-like in every book one reads. Of course, reading a book is also getting a glimpse into the soul of the author. One has the opportunity to gain in just one book – what might have taken the author tens of years to acquire. It is an incredible experience to consider that someone else has put years into achieving a goal which can now be gained by someone else in a few hours.

How to Change the Way You See Yourself (Includes Video)

I Am...

I am (sic) reminded of the well-known comparison given concerning the way we each see life (and other things) so differently. One such an issue – for example – is when approaching the viewpoint of how we see God. This, of course, triggers off millions of viewpoints. Who is right?!

Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

Cow

Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion’s guest room. Instead the angels were given a space in the cold basement. As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.
