problem is too many people are afraid to give tochacha lest the person/friend not like them anymore.
for Hashem a person should not be afraid to do anything. you should be willing to give up your life for Hashem. even if it means losing business or friendship etc…
amazing achdus to give him chizzuk
so i guess according to you its also bad for children to read books that teach them proper middos & about yomim tovim etc… (thus teaching them school lessons while enjoying a book)
i never drank coffee B”H
Coffee is not healthy but if you drink it then its your strength of the day. see if you can find something healthier to replace it with so you can get your strength. it makes me sad that i see lots of parents letting their kids drink coffee at such a young age when its very unhealthy & also not needed at their young age. (when i go to Brissim)
“Pesach hotel vacations are a consequence of our descent into rampant gashmius.”
i spent 6 years as a Mashgiach in many different hotels throughout the USA & i can personally tell you its all about gashmius & takes away the kedusha of yom tov. the food is 24-7 the programs are 24-7 etc…. totally lowering the kedusha of yom tov.
& with all i enjoyed each year in hotels i can still tell you “there is still nothing like making Pesach at home”
don’t address him at all. go straight to Hashem for help. for one that seeks out Hashem lacks nothing that is good (Tehillim 34:10 said in bentching)
if it was a HALACHA
then we would all get drunk every year just like we all light the menorah
can you please tell me WHERE in shulchan aruch it is listed AS A HALACHA that you MUST get drunk until you don’t know the difference bet. mordechai & haman…..
What is the law for someone who steals financially by using someone else’s American airlines card or Costco card to save himself money? Both pure corruption and stealing. Your Costco card includes you, your spouse and your single children.
CA is correct.
Every campaign is always won, although sometimes you will see more ads making you think they are more desperate for help cause the campaign is closing very soon.
I will not be your LOR to tell you if this is stealing based on taking other people money more than they would normally give for just a one time help. But you can ask your LOR what he thinks.
Welcome to the generation of corruption and dishonesty. Where a person’s human physical mind I.e. Yetzer Hara will convince him in each situation that it’s not stealing. ( rather it’s using someone else’s American airlines card to save money on your flight or using someone else’s Costco card etc…)
the weather is all in Hashem’s hands and nobody can change it. the only thing you can do is daven to Hashem & hope it will be nice weather
have a nice fun purim
theres only 1 lesson in the entire paragraph above. don’t take life for granted & let it be wasted C”V. U’Vacharta b’chaim you should choose life.
I don’t know about everyone else here, how often we think about our life, most people make an account of their life once a year-before Yom Kippur- Tzaddikim make an account once a month-before Yom kippur Kotton. I know a person that makes a account of his life almost everyday of his life. He told me this is the final last thing he thinks about almost every night AFTER saying Krias Shma al Hamita he makes an account thinking did i learn today, daven, give tzedaka, help another yid etc… is Hashem going to say to his Malachim i have Charata (pity) i gave this yid an extra day to live. How precious life is. Hashem doesn’t just say this yid will live to 98 this one to 108 & this one to 110, every day & hour is a gift from Hashem, U’vacharta B’chaim-you should choose life-lets learn this now while we are still young.
This is the only lesson i realized that takes us a life time to learn (we never learn it ) although it gets revealed to us so many times each year. HOW LIFE GOES BY IN AN INSTANT. One second, father just made ????? from ??? & Mother is already lighting the candles, something is wrong here something has to be wrong 6 days just flew by .this is how every year goes by we go from ????? & Before you know it its time to order ????? ???? for ????? Then its exactly 30 days to ??? we then count exactly 7 weeks until ?????? then its exactly 4 weeks until ???? ??? ????? then comes the 3 weeks & then 3 weeks of summer & Before you know it its time to blow the ???? already YES A YEAR JUST FLEW BY & IS GONE FOREVER.
i wish you happy birthdays & write to you words of chizzuk special for a persons birthday.
What can we learn from Birthday’s? Why did Hashem invent a day to celebrate a persons birth? There’s nothing wrong or goyish with having a birthday cake or party. The lesson we can learn is, that last year on this day i was 39, today i became 40. A complete year has just gone by. What have i accomplished during this time? Was my time spent wisely? (Wisely does not need to mean Learning & Davening etc.., going shopping & spending family quality time is also considered time spent wisely & actually very important to raise a happy & healthy family) Can I actually face Hashem now & say truthfully that I spent this past year wisely? Maybe we can learn that every minute counts & is so precious & now another full year is gone forever.
nothing is better then sinning as they say better ZERO then going NEGATIVE C”V
HPO
The problem is that even if the words are nice & words of praise to Hashem etc… its the songs rock & tune that make a persons attitude change & it affects people badly in their yiddishkeit & their Neshama. different kind of Music have different effects & almost all of it is bad effects
WE CAN ALL AGREE that ALMOST ZERO music is spiritual/ruchnius i.e. a person singing just to thank & praise Hashem (unless its Shabbos zemiros etc…) but now we are talking about singers with SONGS TO ENJOY (so when a person can reach this high Madreiga of Singing praises to Hashem from his heart in gratitude-like the story below-then we can talk)
i know a person that all day everywhere he walked or had a spear moment he always sang “Tov l’hodos L’Hashem….” i saw him singing sometimes & it was with such Simcha that he even sang it in english sometimes cause it came from his heart in thanks & unlimited Hakaras Hatov to Hashem for everything Hashem gives him/us etc….
how many songs of todays generation from jewish singers are straight from the goyish singers with the words changed & they use jewish words?
These songs are pure rocken music with a goyish taam & are destroying yiddishkeit & the kedusha of klal yisroel R”L.
there’s a book someone put out of todays jewish music & what’s wrong with it & why it doesn’t belong in a jewish persons home or neshama

WHat number do you call to get put on the do not call list?
how good is your middah of Hakaras hatov from 1-10. where are you holding? how much work does it take to remove the middah of taking things for granted so that you will always have hakaras hatov for everything that is done for you? (rather by Hashem or by a friend)
Start working on it now
1)Wake up call for TESHUVA and
2)the Niftar time was up in this world.
3)test of bitachon and emunah on the entire family involved and the injured families involved
4)many other reasons that cannot be revealed to us in this world. When you are fortunate to have completed your mission in this world YOU will find out in the Olam haemes exactly why this tragedy occurred
How about a chumra for no cell phones allowed to even enter mekomos hakedoshim like shuls and batei Medrash. Let’s restore the kedusha that a shul used to be.
No talking in shul anytime even between aliyos if you want or need to then go to the hallway
Joseph
Sure remove all the tumah from your home including the unnecessary technology (fancy cell phones, ipads etc…)
Remove the tumah from your mind and raise your children in pure spiritual purity like they do. Anything which EVEN MIGHT cause their child to turn away C”V is not allowed in the house even for the parents. Can you handle this? For the sake of your children yiddishkeit? If you can and do raise them this way they definitely will be ready to marry by 18 or 20 the latest.
“in addition, plenty of chassidim get married pre-20 and seem okay.”
This is because they are raised from birth in a way that they mature at a younger age & are therefore ready to marry & raise their own family when they are very young. versus regular people are not ready at 18 to marry.
I nominate trump to get you some kosher parsley from his steak restaurants and hotel kitchens

Any food

sure Lekovod shabbos & yom tov there are lots of delicacies but people who work on themselves… when they do eat it (rather on shabbos or at a simcha etc…) eat it only for the honor of Shabbos or to make the baal simcha happy that he is joining their Simcha etc…
theres one kind of person who is a tzaddik & has reached this high level (you don’t need to be a Gadol Hador to reach this level) of holding himself in from going after his desires. & then there,s the person that is simply living in Denial by not eating/enjoying what he can enjoy. if you are the 2nd person then the person is crazy & needs help.
theres many other things that every human can work on to bring yourself to a higher madreiga & closer to Hashem. but that is not for now.
A baseball cap is definitely not Shabbosdik
eat to have strength to serve Hashem or to make the person who made it happy (rather its your wife or your host your eating by) BUT DON’T EAT just to fress cause you love it. thats what a chazer is & a Chazer is not a kosher animal.
theres nothing wrong for a person to go out to the restaurant to eat. BUT to go out just cause you desire that steak is crazy & Insane. start working on yourself to hold your yetzer hara back.
I was at a expensive fancy event this week (was sefardi happens to be) & i did not touch a single thing there. i came to give Mazel tov & had already eaten before coming. it can take time. but you can work on yourself to hold your taivos back from what you want & bring yourself to greatness.
Tzaddikim eat just to have strength to serve hashem. so there is almost no difference to them between eating bread & water versus pizza & sodah.
may we all reach this high level one day.
So i guess you admit to going after your evil yetzer Hara by running after your desire for sefardi food without being able to hold yourself in.
a patient i assisted in my office just yesterday with addiction issues but not serious addiction (like drinking or drugs etc…) ruchinus addiction. i.e. my patient is not able to hold his taivos back from wasting time sitting watching TV & Shows etc… his first day of therapy is today. HOLDING HIMSELF BACK FROM HIS DESIRES & ALSO NOT WASTING HIS LIFE OVER DOING NOTHING. will need to see how long therapy takes for him.
how long will it take you Sefardi guy to withhold yourself back from your yetzer hara for these foods & other stuff bad for a yid?
i wish you hatzlacha to start working on yourself now
bright colors worn by older people give the impression of looking old versus when work by younger people it give more attraction & sticks out more then dark ties
I totally agree with Joseph
If a Sefer Torah is larger heavier and bigger does that make it holier?
Today we have smaller ones so that even people who need Kiruv can hold onto Hashem Torah and Mitzvahs it also makes it more convenient so we don’t need such large Ahron kodoshim. With crowns on top and being large sofrei Torah they would go through the roof
Yes you are mechuyuv so you prevent him from the need to return to this world when he is niftar to make up for it.
But you can double check with your LOR
Ask them at the Trump Casino and Hotels
With all due respect let us not forget the most important thing.
Let’s not forget who really runs the world. Hashem. Lev Melachim byad Hashem….
When we write like this coffeeroom we all sound like whoever wins runs the world.
Put your trust in Hashem alone and not others…. For one who trusts Hashem lacks nothing (tehillim 34)
Let’s hope the best one we all hope for wins president
cause i know that if he was able to take on him to admit to me that he did something wrong. that he really has charata for what he did. so now that he has asked me forgiveness its time for me to move on. theres just a limit how much a person can let his life get ruined over 1 event that happened (although it may be major)
ex. even if someone murders someones relative C”V is the person killeds family gonna be depressed & upset & angry etc… at the murderer for THEIR ENTIRE LIFE? is it worth it to ruin your entire future 80 or 90 years of life ahead of you over 1 Major tragedy/event? (the murderer will pay justice in bais din/civil court but you cant throw YOUR entire life down the drain over this 1 event)
theres a limit to every situation, in the case of Niftar there are levels from Shiva to Shloshim to yahrtzeit etc… & what each one allolws or not allows. but you cant lock yourself up for life because of it

mechila when asked, means the person feels bad for what they did-otherwise they would not ask mechila cause they still think they did nothing wrong-& wants to ask you forgiveness & remain friends with you. so if you forgave him then you know its time to move on & start fresh with him
BOTTOM LINE:if a person is asking you mechila-although its just words-he obviously admits that what s/he did was wrong

ever heard of something called “Hishtadlus”? ever heard of “ein somchim al haneis” a person may not depend on Miracles. you cant just sit back and say ill wait until i win the lottery & i trust Hashem that i will somehow win.

it takesmuch more then that…. it actually needs to become part of a persons system & way of life for it to work. this is why it takes at least 30 years (cause it needs to get into yuor system)
start making a learning seder of chovos halevovos every day for a few minutes.
or you can disregard this message & live a life filled with worry, fear, stress & depression etc…. which you prefer is your choice. i prefer a happy life filled with joy 24-7
so let us stop being self-centered & start think about others-besides ourselves-& help them in any kind of help someone might need (not everything in life is money)
1)Serve Hashem not because Hashem said so in the torah but serve Hashem out of love as for all hashem does & continues to do 24-7 for each & every one of us. just like you honor & Respect what your parents want cause YOU know how much they did for you from the minute you were born.
May it happen very soon

touch base with a busy mohel & tell him to contact you with the information of the bris he is doing
Becoming a Baal Betuchen & Emuna (Faith & trust) is no simple matter. A person can’t just say, let me have faith in hashem, it is a long & Difficult journey. Becoming a person of Betuchen & Emuna in Hashem is an average of a 30 year journey minimum. (not from when your born, but from when the journey starts) Do you know what these 30 years are? Only the first 10 percent of the journey is learning every mussar sefer in the world, the other 90 percent of the journey is passing every single Nisayon (test) with Ahava (love) etc… , from accidents to robberies to deaths Chas V’Shalom etc… A true person of Faith knows the mishna in pirkei Avos that says the good & bad is all for the good every minute of the day , 24-7. Every Nisayon that a person gets from Hashem & passes, brings him closer & closer to Hashem & every test that a person experiences gets harder & harder, but a person can never ask Hashem why something bad is happening, because we all know that if a person was not able to pass a test then Hashem would never give it to him. Nothing in the world will effect a person of Bitachon, no matter what happens, cause he knows that everything Hashem does is for the good. Do you know what the reward for being a person of Faith & trust is? The reward is worth more then all the money in the world, the reward is the gift of Happiness, you get to be the happiest person in the world cause nothing in the world will effect you. Now can you tell me a better reward then that?.
Go to torahanytime and go to the mussar category and search for shiurim on Chovos Halevavos.
