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.

Birkas Hachamah

Another thing on my mind is the Birkas Hachamah/blessing of the sun event. I'm looking forward to interesting day when everything will go back to it's original allignment and the cycle starts anew.
Here's a beautiful article on it

the smell of success

You know how when you get what you want and then new challenges arise. Well that's what is happening. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the situation I'm in. All I can do is make my best effort with it and pray it works out. I use to be more of the type to just give up when things became hard, for example, when I was a kid in school and didn't realize my strengths if I would have only had confidence. Now though, I keep at it. And I'm always surprised. I still have that voice that says, this is not going to work, but I continue anyway because you never know. Of course, I know my limits, like I'm not cut out to be a surgeon :) but I also know what Is possible if I make enough effort, plus pray for assistance

Tonight, while playing spider solitaire on the computer, I noticed something that reminded me of my situation. I looked at the cards thinking it's not going to work, and was going to start a new game, however, I decided to continue. Eventhough it's just a simple card game, the message of success through perserverence gave me hope.

FINDING COMFORT :)

While reading Tehillim 32 and studying the commentary, I found a very important message that we can all use when going through personal challenges. There are two ways to approach challenges. We can either let it bring us down and feel misrable, or we can use it as an oppertunity to strengthen ourselves.
With me, I'm still looking for a shidduch. I do both taking action and praying. I think though that there must be something that I need to work on in me first before the right person comes. You might be wondering, how come some find someone quickly and others take longer. We don't know. We just know that if it's taking a long time, then it's not time yet. It's very hard to wait for that moment. But it's better to marry the right person at the right time. In the mean time, I'll just keep making an effort , pray, work on myself and have emunah

On another note, sometimes I think about other things I want, and feel down if I think I might not get it. However, afterwards, I was thinking that what I should do is make a list of the things I have and appreciate. There are many nice things that I appreciate having, baruch Hashem

have a good week
