Thank you for the quick responses!
I’ve always said thank you in response to Mazal tov but I got some strange looks…
Try googling for that info.
How do I respond to people saying Mazal tov?
Mazal Tov, Yummy!!!!
Amaaretz, thanks for the tip! I tried it and it works, but every few seconds a connection error message box pops up. So annoying!
I feel bad going off topic here, but I just want to tell Shopping how much better she made me feel. I also stopped davening when I finished school. Every now and then, in a burst of inspiration, i Daven Shachris, but that doesn’t happen too often. Even now that we’re in Elul, I barely daven. And I feel so guilty about that… It’s so ironic, cuz in school, I really daven well, but at home… The atmosphere just doesn’t work.
I wonder if there are more Bais Yaakov girls that do this. I wish schools would talk about it! In their minds, the hardest thing about davening is having kavanna. I wish they’d talk about this topic, I bet there are so many girls that feel really guilty.
The YWN app is pretty much useless right now.
Wow, that’s beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Every time a Gadol passes away, Eretz Yisrael is at war, or some Arab country changes leadership, everyone is sure Mashiach will be coming in a few hours. I’ve learned to take that with a grain of salt. Mashiach could come any day.
Hashem, no!!!!!
I’m crying so much right now I can’t even see the screen. It’s too much already- three bachurim kidnapped and killed, an innocent four year old child killed by a rocket, infants being injured and even killed, SO many soldiers killed, the entire Eretz Yisrael constantly on alert for sirens that signal possible death, and now a 23 year old bachur that visited Eretz Yisrael to recharge his spiritual batteries- DEAD?!
So many families were ripped apart in the past two months. So many parents are crying right now, remembering their beloved children… How are we just supposed to go on with life, Hashem?!
How?!
Oy, that is really disappointing… I’ll leave the advice to those more knowledgable than me, but I just want to tell you that you’re definitely not alone in this situation!
Keep your head up!
My school has sessions on both Friday and Sunday. Is my school the only one that does this?
I just said a perek of tehillim on behalf of your special friend. I wish id have funds to donate!
The same Torah that says to have hakaras hatov also says not to speak lashon hara.
Wouldn’t the name be Faiga, not Faigy if it’s for tehillim?
I think that what funnybone meant to say is that it’s ok for a teen to think suicidal thoughts sometimes. But when the said teen seems to be clinically depressed, then suicidal thoughts are something to be worried about.
Keepclimbing, I wish I’d know what to say to make you feel better. I wish I could make you an appointment with Hashem, in which He could tell you what you are capable of, and how there is a reason for your height. But I can’t, so I’ll do the next best thing- tell you that Hashem is rooting for You. You’ve got a whole cheerleading team up in Shamayim. Maybe if you internalize that, it would help you? Realize that every action you make, every word you say, even every thought that crosses your mind is precious in Hashem’s eyes.
Stay strong, keep climbing, and keep smiling.
I have this really creepy fear:
You know at night when you’re in bed and it’s too hot under your blanket, and too cold to be without one? So the optimal solution in that case would be to stick your feet out while leaving the rest of your body underneath the blanket, right? I have this fear that someone will come and chop my feet off. 🙂 totally irrational, yet logic hasn’t changed the fact that I am very often hot at night.
Also, I’m terrified of enclosed water slides. I’m not sure what motivates that fear- it can be the absolute darkness, or just claustrophobia. Either way, the last time I was on one, I came off pale and shaking.
If you ever need chizuk, just come on over to the cr!
Mendel’s bracha to you was gorgeous. Amen.
Bagels and Green!
Try their mushroom sliders. HEAVEN!!!!!
It’s sad, but there are many dangerous people out there. If I’d have a kid, i doubt I’d let him/her go party at a person my age’s house! Many teens aren’t very dependable or responsible. In case of an emergency, would that teen know what to do?
