  • in reply to: why does hashem challenge us? #1018903

    #Good question!!!!

    I think the reason is so that the other nations should’t say,

    Look the jews are supposedly his beloved nation and they suffer so much, glad we’re not…

    We know that the whole world revolves around us….. So the non-jews have challenges to camouflage our challenges…

    But, our challenges are blessings in diguise..

    You may have heard this mashul before, but, it keeps me going when times are so tough!

    A man leased a farm from boris, who was a very kind landowner, and every time this man wasn’t able to pay that month’s rent, Boris excused him and let him lease on credit.

    Once, Boris went away and let his son Nikolai in charge of the lease. And unfortunately there was no rain that month and the man didn’t have enough to pay up. Nikolai was furious and beat him 5 times.

    When Boris came back and heard what his son had done, he called the man over to his house.

    Quite scared, the man went and knocked timidly on the door of Borris’ statelt mansion.

    WHen he came in, Boris greeted him warmly and asked him how things have been. Then he commanded his servants to bring five big bags. He then gave the bags to the man and told him to fill them from his treasury one bag for each slap he received.

    As soon as he heard boris’ words, the tenant burst out crying.

    shocked, boris asked him why?

    the answer he gave was “had i known how good this beating was for me, I wouldve asked him to beat me more!”

    That’s us…

    Every time we get a beating, oh yeah, it’s hard and sometimes almost insurmountable, But, when we come up there, we may just cry when we see how worth it these pains were…..

    Hatzlacha, and stay strong!

    If he gave these tests to you, He knows that you can ace them!

    Give them your all!

    in reply to: Can a jew be a police officer #1017389

    #of course,

    I see no reason why not!

    All these laws are made for our safety.

    So, even if a man is running late to a minyan and above the limit, that’s not called miseras nefesh, it’s called endangering other nefashos.

    #simple as that.

    #I happen to know a couple Jewish policemen, all doing their jobs like they should.

    And just cuz’ someone’s a kohen, doesn’t exempt him from following laws of the country they live in, unless it goes against our torah, which it doesn’t.

    in reply to: music to bring together #1016249

    #so true! music is the language of the soul, Once in Israel I met a couple of girls from mea shearim, and we started conversing, and they invited us for shabbos…… (so typical jews!) And, I remember crying as we all sat there at shalosh seudos, girls from all over the world…. never knew each other before, but, singing the same songs!

    in reply to: Getting over a break up #1062777

    #I dated someone pretty seriously… and then it didn’t end up working out. A teacher that I was close to in high school told me the following that helped the situation not bring me down.

    A guy and a girl dated for a long time, and then broke up. The guy was devastated, so he went to a Chashuva Rav about it. (forgive me i don’t remember the name.) And the Rav told him not to be upset because if he would’ve married her, it wouldn’t be possible for them to have kids from that union.

    My point isn’t that every break up is like that….

    my point is that Hashem has a plan, and though, sometimes we don’t understand it, and it is hard, and sometimes almost impossible, He has a plan for us, and it’s a good one, the best possible!
