WOW A gitte voch. How was ur yom tov?
My son was not home but he was BH in a good place..I hope.
this time I beleive he was because he went with my other sons..
there was a time I had ‘family locater’ on his phone and I was checking where he was.. and he said he was somewhere else.
I couldnt even confront him..
When I call him he tells me he will be home in 10 min.. its more like 10 hrs..
I got up in the morning and found his bed still empty..
with all these ‘wonderful’ places open all night long I could only imagine the education he was getting..
there was/is nothing to do.. I just daven.. certain kapitlech t’hillim for 40 days.. then i said 2 prakim a day till I finished t’hillim ..I was told T’hillim and T’fillos are like a bank account you keep on putting in and the time comes and you cash in..
I came to a point where I told myself there is nothing more that I can do and I just gave up. basicly not caring where he is and not caring when he came home. I didnt ask him when and where.
but on top of all this I treat him as I do my other children give him what he needs..etc..
the hour is late. I will continue tomoro
