I see the CR functions rather well during my absence…;)
mepal and anonymisss, thanx for the compliment 🙂
anonymisss I just saw your question now. like I said before (meant to anyway) everyone has their own package (me included) it doesnt mean you need to think about it all day but that when you think about it, you feel bad, and ask Hashem for help to get you through it. I cant imagine anyone thinks about their problems all day and if they do, IMO, thats ridiculous because a person is supposed to serve Hashem through simcha (with a certain amount of allotted down time) and if a person is overcome with his problems, then how can he serve Hashem through simcha? (btw, you are allowed more “down” time because the problem is pretty recent, but I was hoping you would be completely better by now I wasnt in the CR for a while but I didnt forget you in davening)
I cant personally attest to this but its been said (I dont know by whom) that if a person was offered a tray of “pekelach” he would still choose his own. I’ll repeat what I told moish before, if a person is born to accomplish something on this world, and they dont because they prefer not to be tested, then what was the point of being born. another thing, I guarantee Hashem will compensate you in gan eden.
am I making you think about this more? if I am and this is making it worse, than I’ll stop here :):):):):)
moish I just skimmed through some old posts but I think its that if you’re being tested now, you have the potential for Hashems love that can be greater, but only if YOU work for it 🙂
