Many people need to add a name to a main name (I. e. if the person they are naming after, passed away at a young age). According to some [Poskim], the added name needs to be first. Since the second name is the main name, they are called by their second name. I have many family members who have 2 names. Most go by their second name or are called by both names.
Rabbi Moshe Meir Weiss is fascinating. Pirkei Avos is short (about 20 minutes per 2 mishnas), engaging and to the point.
yichus is a bunch of zeros. if a person makes himself “1” – as in, works on himself (middos, learning)to become some”one” then he can put the zeros after him and then yes, yichus can be worth something.
a couple of years away from 30.. that means you’re in your 20’s. I think you’re amazing for knowing what you want in your life at this age. People in their 40’s and 50’s and 60’s are still trying to figure it out!
no way are you too late!!
It’s hard. Here are a few tips:
1. Put money in the pushka at least once a day for his Hatzlacha
2. Daven 1 tefilla (shmonei esrei) and talk to Hashem like your friend.
3. Ask your husband to call you twice a day. He will call you during his free time. If he calls, don’t call him. If he doesn’t, keep your outgoing calls to a minimum (2 calls).
4. DO NOT call your husband a million times – unless it’s an emergency (but a true emergency that he would have to come home).
5. Keep very busy. Especially at night. Go out with friends or talk on the phone or watch something. The idea: distract yourself. Nights are hardest.
Good Luck. Keep strong.
Real flowers – when put together well – can be breathtaking. I personally grew up that flowers are a part of Shabbos and Yom Tov. Table looks empty without them (even when set well). Flowers smell heavenly too (depends which one) and brighten a room (cant argue with that)
You can buy a real bouquet:
1. L’kovod Shabbos and Yom Tov
2. When you think of someone (re: wife)
Now you can say same for chocolates and CD’s. But Hashem created flowers and something sentimental about them.
Naturally, women are closer to Hashem and his world. Therefore, a woman enjoys nature (so there you go about flowers).
Usually a person will purchase flowers when they are thinking of someone and want to show it – that’s what a woman wants from her husband.
A book, CD or chocolates – given a gift – will show that you wanted to buy a gift, not necessarily ‘thinking’.
Ever heard of the expression “It’s the thought that counts?”
Well, that role plays a very big part when it comes to women.
