    teenager - I actually heard that one from a rebetzin. If she could have one thing it would be a reason to be happy.

    :') Joseph, that was so sweet. Few people have attached such importance to little old me.

    and you wanted to know why, So the whole world will finally see who is King of all Kings, that the yidden are truly Hashem's chosen people, that there will be a true peace in the world, that I can finally get to Eretz Yisroel, that Moshe is Emes!! and that Torah is Emes!!

    One thing - only ONE thing??????? OY. I would want complete Shalom al Yisroel, because if that were the case, all other happiness would ensue as a result. It could only happen if Moshiach came, the Beis Hamikdash were rebuilt, our meisim were alive again, and their was total achdus in kall Yisroel.

    And also, chocolate.

    It would have to be true happiness, not based on materialistic things. If I was happy, i wouldnt feel a need to resort to negative things.

    teenager--it's possible to have happiness--it's a result of fulfillment, resolution of doubt, and a feeling of being understood. I hope you have ways in your life to get there. If not I'm sure many can give solid suggestions.

    If I could have one thing it would be that we could all realize how much Hashem loves us.

    If I could have anything it would be a fold up light wet bed that I could carry in my pocket and put to use daily.... no I take that back... i think I am learning to sleep without the bad in all postions! ok then I guess I would want.... um.... ooohhh this is hard.... I would want to have the chachma to always do the right thing!! (no more sticking a foot in my mouth... its getting sore!)

    What thing could I not live without? My bed... oh we took care of that, I guess my true happiness.

    asdfghjkl- now you've done it. I was laughing so hard bout the hair gel my co-worker came in to ask what's wrong. My shoulders were shaking. Maybe I'm just in that kinda mood- happens on Thursdays u know. That giddiness that Shabbos is almost here. ahhhh- some menuchas hanefesh at last

    These are some really deep questions- as light as they may sound.

    The one thing I really want above all else is Mashiach to just be here already. My heart aches for this every day and my patience is wearing(sp?) very very thin. If I may add a clause to that wish "we should all be zoche to be a part of the redemption!" otherwise we’re dead meat- literally

    The one thing I can't live without is- MUSIC

    I would love to know all TRUTH. Although, I think if I really got that, it would also have a lot of negatives associated with it.

    shkoyach? Would that be a queen size bed? Tell us, so we can make Mod99 jealous again.

    hmmm Had a feeling most ppl would write Moshiach or happiness.
    Can the thing you want most be the thing you can't live without?

    oops... at 2:45 am I would not make a good mod... I just read my post and i spelled somethings wrong that sound quite funny :) I meant a light weight bed not a wet bed :P and I also meant a bed and not "bad". oh squeak... it don't need to be queen size as long as its long enough for me (Hey in EY days it was barely long enough nor wide enough so I had to learn to sleep on anything!)

    For all those who said Moshiach... I was thinking of saying that but then I thought, hey are we supposed to be aiming for "moshiach" or I we supposed to be aiming to do Razon Hashem and as a result Hashem will bring moshiach. we are not living for Moshiach (contrary to popular belief!) we are living to serve Hakadosh Baruch Hu and bring the world to perfection as He deems it and clinging to Him and part of that process is Moshiach. Yes its an incentive but it's not the top goal and we have torealize that and start deserving it.

    teen, that's no big deal. Stop by my house on your way home and I'll cut you a check. (It's less than 1/8 of what I just signed onto a few days ago).

    But those other things, are not so easy.
