What is goin on in this world??
Tragedy again and again…
I can’t stop thinking about it
I can’t stop crying
Every year we sit and daven that this year will be better then the last
But already we’re hit with such tragedy…
These young bocherim returning to study Torah. After spending a nice shabbos with they’re friends ans family
But never again will the words of Torah pass their lips in this world.
A young boy running to catch his bus
How many of our kids run to catch the bus??
Yet this sweet neshama will never gleefully run again.
What are we doin wrong?
I’m sure we know.
I know what I’m doing wrong.
Why do we need tragedys such as these to wake us up??
Please Hashem bring moshiach and and end to all this madness

I can certainly think of many improvements that I, as an individual need to do, but it would seem that such a spate of tragedies from the RBS”O indicates that we as a community are failing in some way spiritually. I think that one thing we can all improve on is our adherence to Halacha, especially Hilchos Shabbos which I believe the Chofetz Chaim ZT”L said that it is almost impossible not to violate if we do not study the Halachos very seriously. Maybe if we all take upon ourselves to study 2 Halachos about Shabbos. Maybe we can all agree to take one Sefer – perhaps the Shabbos Home by Rabbi S.B. Cohen and learn every day – would this be possible – maybe we can get a chain going to many people. Perhaps we could get the Haskomah of a Gadol to take this improvement on ourselves.

At first the three senior Roshei Yeshiva were taken from us within two weeks back in late spring, striking Klal Yisroel in Eretz Yisroel, America and Europe. Back then many of us have sighted their advance age at the time.
But then Hashem removed the pure young Neshoma of Leiby, in a very brutal way, which shook us quite a bit. Not long after that we lost Rav Abuchatzeira No one blamed his old age then either.
Harav Don Ungarisher, Harav Avraham Eliezer Mintzberg, Harav Schwartzman, Harav Menashe Klein, Harav Finkel, Reb Kanievsky; the holy neshomos that were taken from us in just few short weeks. Once again some might dare say they died due to their advanced age or life long sickness.
But in just few short days, more neshomos: A bochur killed in LA, 3 year old dies in a car fire in Eretz Yisroel; 8 year old is killed by a car in Monsey; 2 year old has died in Lakewood; two bochrim died in an accident in CT.
Young and old here and there, the holy neshomos are leaving us.
One must be blind not to see.
