Honestly u can’t judge these people, some are so desperate they have no choice. But I do see ur point it can be disturbing.
Middle Path- thank you so much it means a lot.
Kapusta- thanks for the bracha
Blabla-loved the poen really, and I just want to clariy regarding MP’s question, I think that if a man loves his wife and really is happy to see her when he comes home, however he’s totally exausted from the days work, why should that effect the way he greets her. If greeting her nicely makes her feel dear (which is true for every wife) then he should greet her and if you repeat it enough it will become “real”. I’ve learned this from mussar seforim if you know something is right to do but don’t feel like doing it, you do it anyway and with enough repetition you’ll want to do it and enjoy it. Now you can fake love so if there isn’t a true foundation of love between them, then I agree don’t fake it. But in a healthy marriage, fake it when ur exausted until you can’t wait to greet ur spouce with a smile.
Witnessing someone taking advantage of someone else.
Secular music at jewish weddings! Mu Gosh do it everywhere else if u must but not the holyest day of ur life!
My chiropractor charges $45 dollars a visit. Unless this chiropractor is a specialist and the issue is a serious one he could get that care for less money.
A new career is here for me
I had faith and now I see
It was waiting for the the right time
I knew that Hashem would make it shine
I’m really tired and gotta go to sleep
But wanted you all to know we Have Hashem for keeps
He’s here with us every moment of the day
And Will always show us the way
Thank you Hashem!!

Syag- I’d like to say this poem is beautiful! Wow! And I really like the line “Love is not comfort, love is not pleasure, love is security and growth and knowing that you are never alone” how true.
Thank you, I’m inspired!
Mdd — thanks for the post I actually just saw that tshuva this shabbos.
” I hate seeing singles by weddings!!!!! these lost lonely soals. so cold and frigid. A sense of happiness is displayed, but deep down they NEED thier own”
“Lonely soals” I figure ill give you translation for soals.
(?oal) Ro?ia Montan? (“Rosia of the Mountains/in the Mountains”; Verespatak; Goldbach, Rothseifen) is a commune of Alba County in the Apuseni Mountains of western Transylvania, Romania. It is located in the Valea Ro?iei, through which the Ro?ia River flows
You make as if a single person is some sort of nebach! Singles are wonderful caring loving people, succesful mature and whole list of other things too. They just haven’t gotton married yet.
But yeh I get ur point, singles do wish they were married, but don’t appreciate having people feel this way about them.
Yedishazach— I understand saying no to an interested party is hard and like u mentiond can make you feel bad. Natural. Normal. In fact it shows a sensitivity of you to care that the other party may have felt by ur decision.
However, you should realize that its extremely short, people get over it quickly once it settles in their mind that if the date didnt feel its right obviously they’re not the one he or she is meant to marry.
Secondly, understand that whom you marry is a big desicion and one should never move forward because they can’t say no. So you did the right thing, and no need to feel bad.
Isn’t that the purpose of dating?
Oh I do it every purim. A family member of mine is a teacher who receives many bigger and nicer mishloach manos (correct pronunciation btw) from students. There they right out the door to a Rebbi of mine or someone that I want to give a nice one to. Sometimes ill mix and match and make something nice out of a few too. But yeh make sure the card isn’t still tacked on.
A new Week is here
And purim is in the air
Some we can learn from
Purim, is Hashems help will always come
Maybe u don’t expect it
Like in the story in shushan
But onw thing for sure
Hashem we can always count on
So next time ur in a pickle
And nothing seems to work
Ask Hashem for help just a little
You’ll see he won’t charge u a nickel
He wants u to ask him for help
He’s ur father and cares so much
Just a little prayer a small yelp
And He’ll be in in touch
You see all he wants is for you to understand
That he’s almighty nothing he can’t hand(le)
So just ask and open up the channel
He’ll be there for you, no need to pass in front of a panel
A gut voch to all my poetry friends!
Toi- u are absolutely right! I smoked for five years and quit because I wanted to honestly I was disgusted from it. That lasted five years. Then I went through a rough situation and started again smoking for a year now but I agree when u want to its easy, when something or someone is forcing u its really hard because u still crave and want a smoke. A great book btw to stop smoking is: “The easy way to stop smoking” written by Allen Carr

646– you mentioned a “prominent Rov” well in the Organization where he is the Spiritual leader having forums about gays and lesbians is ok, that which our Torah calls an abomination becomes a discusion, well not prominent to me. Sorry.
Getzel- beautiful piece!!
So well written, I felt like I was watching the scene right ther as if I was on line!! Really!
Marvelous writing!!
Health- I’d question that sefer, from what I’ve learned from my rebeim is that all neshamos are gilgulim today.
Dancingirl– some of the most talented people who were about to create somethin new or those who have invented concepts and machines that the entire world uses today, have been told their idea was silly and would fail. Well you’ve proven them all wrong and have what to be proud of, I personally have gained support right here so I thank you very much!!
Listen, go to a person who has some clout invonlved in chinuch in that city and inform them about what’s going on. Hashem made you see this because he wants you to do something about it.
You have the opportunity to change the lives of hundreds of kids that will go to that school. Do it for them. Yes teachers and rebeim can make a kid love yiddishkeit or hate it.
This again? Same reason they are a no go for someone in the military, they have a uniform that identifies them as a yeshiva bachur and it happends to be black and white for some and gray and blue for some. Jeans happends not to be the uniform.
Just like its not the car its the driver, I feel its not the school its the student.
I imagine that the soaps and shampo and the other little bottles will be thrown out whether u use them or not.
This is a conversation between the brain and the heart:
B: think positive and all will be good
H: I have negative feelings I wish I could
B: look let’s just be smart and forget all that’s past
H: I try to do that but it doesn’t last
H: you see, for you its all logic like 1 plus 1, for me its feelings please don’t make fun. I use you to remember things and the feeling comes along this is my nature nothing right or wrong.
B: aha I see ur in pain, well don’t use me to think about it and all will be good. That should do it.
H: well brain, you see it all starts with me, a feeling comes along that gets me to use ur memory that pulls up more memories full of feelings that gush back into me and then I’m in a swirl. Feeling scared nervous or just upset, almost like its happening now. My ventricles are very powerful they gush with feeling, I know you don’t understand to you its not appealing.
B: listen heart I don’t want to fight were part of the same body we must have a purpose. There must be a way for us to work together and maybe we can make our owner feel better?
H: Yes, true I think we should make peace as long as we understand eachother and how we work. So when I have feelings don’t just say oh its for naught its helpful to feel distraught. It helps one mourn over something that has happened so they can move on afterward without it resurfacing are you chappen (understanding)?
B: ok, ill let you feel, but when its too much ill let you know there a limit to how much time you can spend feeling!
H: no no you got it wrong feelings don’t have limits and bounds. You feel until its all out and then yyou move one but you can’t tell me when the time has has come.
B: yes ur right I see the sence it has a purpose indeed. So you do the feeling and ill stand tight, ill wait until ur alright. When you are and got it all out, I can help us move about. Ill help us get through decisions we need to make and together I think we’ll do alright.
H: I’m in, I feel great that we made up.
B: Ok
Yehuda tzvi– beautiful is all I can say! May Hashem bless with health and wealth.
Lost my job
But have a life
Lost income
But have family
Lost my job
But I can see
Lost income
But have friends
No work for now
But I can breathe
No schedule
And I can sing
No boss
Now that’s a good thing
No employees
Not too bad
Out of a job
And ill find another
I still have
Sisters and brothers
Ill be succesful
Oh yes I will be
With the help of
Hashem who created me.
When something goes wrong
Don’t get down
Gather urself together
And look around
Opportunities are all over
If you look
On the first day of this year
Its in ur book.
Hatzlacha to everyone here
In all that we do
Btw some people have 8 cervicals. I do.
I don’t believe they don’t know who mickey mouse is, I didn’t watch tv growing up or now and still know mickey mouse its all over books backpacks, come on!
Rabbi, frankly do others sign?
Roasted fries don’t outdo stake
Return fireworks dearest outdoor sir
Says me. You really depict in ur peom how your feeling, and its hard. I know.
Its nice and he went a little out of the box this time too.
Amazing story! Is it printed somewhere?
Did you try toastmaters?
I think she found a big stack of paper and now she’s busy cutting it with those scissors that she’s always running fast with.
I second that,” dancingirl” look what you’ve created its beaurtiful.
Thanks MP. Always something nice to say!
This is from Dr. Suess, personaly I think its gadlus.
You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself any direction you choose.
You’re on your own and you what you know.
And YOU are the guy who will decide where you go.
Didn’t realize how much they do until I joined them last week. Go chaverim!
Someone sent me this and I’d like to share it with all of my poetry friends:
The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.
Actually till late 1800s the world was pretty much as it was in the 1200s no electric, running water, trasporations was horse and buggy and boats.
In truth its a bunch of hot air like all sports, jonnhy can hit a 3 or jonny can hit a home run and that does something for you? But its deep within the culture and media so good luck.
My life is the greatest non fiction I’ve read or lived should I say.
Tell “the person” that you love to drink coffe for fun.
” I’m so busy with work, school, and life in general. I basically have no time for myself. So, how do I answer this question without sounding so boring and as if I dont have a life?”
Well I think u answered the question there, it seems like ur not into fun. You seem more focused and have goals you’d like to acheive well I think that’s comendable. Seems like u do have a life and have a head on ur shoulders Who says you have be the “fun type”.
But the person just wants to know what u do when ur not at school orwork or studying. Do u spend time with friends, shop, sleep, chill,or just read the yated.
Yes, its a mishna in pirkei avos “v’haakol l’fi rov hamaaseh” and the meforshim explain that each time you give your breaking the selfish part of you.
Health- revenge will eat you up alive,if you accept that it was Hashems will you’ll feel mucher better about it. I could too blame many people for withholding information from me beforehand which would have prevented the our marriage, and someone who guided me incorectly during the engagement when I should of broke it off. However I realize that it was Hashems will thay we were to be married for some time and that’s what happended. It may seem that if so and so didn’t do this and this things would be different but Hashem has his ways of orchastrating his will. Be well.
Eating olives more than once in 30 days.
Putting on two articles of clothing at once
Eating from the pot that food was cooked in
I can’t tell u sources for these, however I grew up with these.
Icot that was really nice, and I also learn from here that sometimes we’re so focused on what we think must be done and in reality it may be something else entirely different and much simpler.
Bla bla so sorry ur having it hard now. Ur an inspiration to me that’s all I can say. You have lots of challenges and you do ur best. Somtimes ones best may not seem like much, but in reality its amazing how u pull urself together “one day at a time”. Hope this passes real soon.
