And it should keep on getting better every year after that!
MyPureNeshama: Just wishing you THE BEST YEAR YOU’VE HAD YET!
Many parts are – for men especially – but if you don’t “pace yourself” and add a little bit at a time, you may get burnt out. Then again, I’m not a rabbi.
Hi Shopping. Try headphones or a walk?
Sign up at Shabbat.com (it’s free!) and type in your city.You may be pleasantly surprised to find other Jews in (or closer to)your neighborhood.
This Shmini Atzeres I will be a “born-again” Jewess. All birthday checks may be mailed to…oh, never mind.
Being that Sarah “complained” exactly once in the Chumash, which was one of the times (or the only time?) Hashem told Avraham to listen to her words (re: Yishmael),I think it’s a poor example. I also wouldn’t use one of the Imahos for a joke about women. Popa,yita,…come on, now, you love your MOTHERS at least,don’t ya?
We’re not ignoring the question, we’re thinking….
I officially stopped posting until after Rosh Hashana, but this thread title caught my eye, and all I can say is: MyPureNeshama, you MUST publish this! So well-written! It’s the harsh truth, that behind SOME rebellion is terrible, irreversible trauma. I would only add that perhaps not EVERY teen in this state has gone through such extreme trauma, since as we know, sometimees people simply make incorrect CHOICES. But I plead with any poster who feels like bashing this thread, which is clearly being written in GREAT PAIN: “Hold your tongues” unless you can post respectfully, please! And MyPureNeshama:I just want to say,that even though it’s normal to feel absolute and justified repulsion to your abuser(s),NONE of the behavior you decribed – NONE of it – brings a Jewish girl deep happiness. A temporary “high”, a little fun,yes — but happiness? I think you yourself would be the first to admit that true joy is NOT a component here. Always remember that genuine, loving, frumkeit DOES exist. This year, try and find an authentic Jewish woman who has a bit of time for you: You will see, a TRUE Jewish life (MINUS the horrible abusers, and some overly-judgmental people)can bring you lasting happiness, and inner peace. I’ve experienced abuse, not the kind you are referring to here, but it’s still painful, and I can honestly say that staying close to Hashem is the wind beneath my wings, and probably the reason my own children have the strength to endure B”h,despite challenges.
Amein, thanks.
Oh Shreck….may next year be a year of “Samchaynu Kmos Inisonu”…No more tire blow-outs, no more being misunderstood when you meant well, ONLY a year of Kulo Tov.
I’m not the mean type, so I’m sorry if my post came across that way. I just didn’t know what you meant, because I thought you were older. Sorry it came out stupidly.
Try China: they aren’t allowed to keep more than one.
mobico and nfgo3: It’s a parenting style, more than the actual number of children. Look around, and look closely.
the-art-of-moi: School? Does Mommy know you’re up?
Ok, Popa’s in the mood for a brawl:)
hey Torah, that’s amazing!!!!
Believe me.And protect me.
