In life, we can either let our experiences make us bitter, or we can channel that feeling towards being a good example in order to improve things.

Israel's Rollercoaster

These days are very difficult and it feels frustrating and hopeless. We should remember to continue to have hope and be strong.  The dawn will come soon.

Making progress

Every year we choose something to work on and later the enthusiasm fades.  What helps is to choose a small goal and do one step at a time. For example, being careful with our words, and learning shemirat halashon, what to say and not say. Or some other trait(middah) or mitzah. We don't have to be perfect, just keep trying to make an effort forward. Every effort counts. 


Shana tovah  everyone

Shana tovah

Well, the high holidays are approaching and we are in that time where we each need to find what we need to improve on.  One of the things we can do is be careful with what we say, whether it's Loshon hara, (gossip) or some other hurtful words.  Words have a bigger impact than we know, therefore we should learn and make an effort to be careful, thereby keeping relationships strong plus receiving blessing from the mitzvah of guarding our tongue.  Here's a good site where we can learn 'A lesson a day' http://chofetzchaim.shemayisrael.com/lesson/lesson2.htm

Have a shanah tovah, happy new year everyone

It could be


Sometimes we read about calculations about when the Geula will arrive and we are not sure whether or not it will happen this time because the other times it didn't. I feel however that even though we are not completely redeemed yet, there are many oppertunities where we can be. Instead of thinking it's not going to happen, we should each work toward making it happen. Each of us can make a difference. Whether with prayer, mitzvos, learning, middos, emunah, unity ... so on. We should show that we really want it and take steps towards it.
