הביאני אל בית היין ודגלו עלי אהבה

When there is Ahavas Hashem, the dikduk is not so important…By the way, is it Dikduk or dikDuk ?
Typically, human monkeypox spreads through very close, intimate contact, and it also can be spread through droplets.
At this time it’s probably “smarter” not to get a smart phone.
Much info out there is wrong anyway and we need to rely on Hashem and do as much things as we can to have more zechusim.Is this internet nisyonos related? If yes, please reach out to GYE (GuardYourEyes)
Try chavrusamatch.com or torahmates.org
The 12 steps were not designed to replace religion and of course, a Jew is always expected to fulfill all requirements in Halacha. For example, although the mitzvah of teshuva is supposed to be done in a very specific manner as defined in halacha, this still does not make step seven “wrong” in any way by not requiring amendments to be done in this manner-one is not exclusive of the other. Similarly, if our Torah requires daily Torah study, this still does not make the 12 steps wrong by not requiring it as one of the 12 steps. Don’t forget-only Jews are required to observe Halacha, while non-Jews are expected to observe only the 7 mitzvos of Bnei Noach. There is no reason why the 12 step program should require Torah study. In fact, if they did require Torah study, it would be a problem in Halacha!
Here’s the bottom line: If the AA founders told people to abandon their religions of origin and exclusively
observe the 12 steps, the critics would have a point-but the exact opposite is true. The AA literature exhorts its members to still observe their religion of origin & consult with their Rabbis.There’s no such thing as a shidduch crisis. Know how I know? Because we believe in something called hashgacha pratis. It’s one of the key components of emunah. It means that Hashem has a unique, very individualized plan for every member of Klal Yisrael, and He watches over each person and orchestrates events so that His plan will unfold for that person exactly as He intended, at the time He intended. That means that nothing and no one can stop Hashem from doing exactly as He plans for each person. That means that no human on earth can tell you the path your life will take.
Amazon Price: $25.99 per pound. But it has bad reviews: “baked in the Ukraine – came broken into tiny pieces”
I once sent a letter to Rav Chaim Kanievsky asking about changing to a shul where I can daven better but the original shul I davened by might be upset and it can create machlokes.
He Replied:
” It’s definitely important to daven in a shul where you fell you’ll daven better, but it needs to be thought through very carefully if it pays to create machlokes becuase of this”People have been predicting moshiach’s arrival for centuries but nobody knows. Maybe they want it to happen so much that they make silly calculations about it and convince themselves that its true. Some people become so absorbed in these calculations and moshiachs arrival date, they dont live like they should. We should not focus on these things. Live a good life, helping people and doing the right thing. It is very possible that moshiach will come very soon but its also very possible that he will not.
There is an amazing insight in “Ohev Yisroel” this week. He explains that the ONLY way to protect small children who do not have yet enough of their own abilities for protection is when the parents do mitzvos with kedusha, it creates a holy angel that protects the children.. so we do have some control on our children’s decisions by doing the right things ourselves
Some researchers believe that tryptophan can have a positive effect on stress because this amino acid helps your brain produce feel-good chemicals. … You will find tryptophan in a variety of foods: turkey, chicken, bananas, milk, oats, cheese, soy, nuts, peanut butter, and sesame seeds.
It’s a good idea to eat some peanut butter on Purim too. There is a study about peanut butter helping some people feel a little better during their depression

Forget about sandwiches stuck in your VCR or crayons melting in your car… Today’s children have access to the center of your digital life. Just think of all the work and memories you have socked away on your computer’s hard drive. Now picture your kids (and their friends) playing bongo on the keyboard, or summarily executing your Word files with the swoop of a mouse. It’s not just possible… it’s probable.
Peanut Butter PC works to protect your electronic valuables by creating a fun and friendly desktop environment. One which provides access to only the programs and websites you choose. Best of all, your kids can’t break out of their desktop. Peanut Butter PC works from Startup to Shutdown providing the perfect learning environment while giving you peace of mind. And when you need to take control back, just enter a special key combination, and your back in Windows (with your files just as you left them).
it’s actually a “Tekunei Zohar” which compares the two.
I heard one interesting point about this, the name PURIM mean “casted lots”
On yom kipur there were the casted lots of the 2 goats…
do you work for the IRS?
I asked my 3 year daughter, “what did hashem put all around Har-Sinai?” she replied “STICKERS!”
(she made for arts-n-crafts the ‘har sinai’ and decorated it with flower shape stickers.)

Some hold that on Shabbos teshuvah you should not say any mussar, because we don’t want to say bad things about yidden in those days, so they say the mussar by the shabbos hagadol drasha
1) Emunah. Believe that hashem runs the show and everything he does is good for us.
2) Know that when we have happiness, we have hashem with us and when we are depressed hashem leaves us
THE CITY OF HAPPINESS IS IN THE STATE OF MIND
Just in case you don’t know the history of sushi… In 1966, a man named Noritoshi Kanai and his Jewish business partner, Harry Wolff, opened Kawafuku Restaurant in Little Tokyo. Kawafuku was the first to offer traditional sushi to Americans.
Some people say that gefilte fish is the Jewish sushi, or Japanese sushi is just a version of gefilte fish.
Time will heal the pain.
But remember that it was not that person that did it. It was Hashem that sent him as a messenger.. that should help the healing process.
Whatever Israel does here , they lose.
For every so called Hamas leader they kill , 10 new leaders arise.
Hamas has full backing from Iran and the whole Muslim world, and ALL other countries at that!
The world hates us and they always will.
There is no such thing as coincidence. The answer is it’s because of many things but that can be a factor too. Hashem takes cares of many issues at same time.

“I learned somewhere that davening very loud makes one m’k’tanei ha’amana. As if HKB”H can’t hear unless he yells.”
THAT ONLY APPLIES TO SHEMONEH ESREI
there are a few medrashim that islam will rule before moshiach comes, and that iran will distroy part of the world…
someone asked me what is the esrog really worth…
I replied, whatever you pay for it, that becomes the value of it (the mitzvah is worth more if you pay more for it – so paying $5 a set the last minute is not recommended)
(1) He has a nice voice (very important when all you do is talk);
(2) He’s likeable (unless you are in the crosshairs of one of his drone attacks);
(3) He’ll tax the rich and make those selfish people pay their fair share (until he runs out of other people’s money)
(4) He needs four more years to…put it all together (because he messed up so badly during the first four years–during his practice round as President).
Driving is like constantly taking an exam. You may feel like the teacher isn’t looking and cheat a little, but she sees you, and you get an F. Like the teacher, someone is always watching. Your name is attached to your driver’s license — and with all the monitoring devices on the road, you can only imagine bending the rules leads to something a little worse than detention.
Besides the mitzvah of “to be fruitful and multiply” it is also a chesed that hashem did with the person that he gave him a spouse so he can realize his faults and correct them. Hashem called it “lo tov heyos headam levado… eizer kenegdo”
if you would be able to see all the laundry you’ll be doing in your lifetime, you would never start!
if you are making a siyum – then for sure shabbos.
if not, would you come to your brothers simcha in weekday clothing?
In these times we need to speek and write only the true good of our dor.
there has never been a dor with so much chesed…
there has never been a dor with so many nisyonos and still stand so strong…
there has never been a dor wit so much torah…
moshiach will come to us – very soon
Without a woman, a man will never realize his shortcomings in life.
The wife helps the man achieve his mission in life by mirroring his faults on a magnified level (that’s eizer kenegdo, the help is that it’s sometimes against him).
Behind every great man, there is a greater woman!
