truth be toldMember
I’ve got one question here. When someone makes an obvious expression of love in public (kissing, affectionately holding hands etc), why are they doing it in public? Is it because:
2) They, for whatever altruistic reason, want others to see it.
truth be toldMemberIs that the whole story and does it negate all other data? No, not at all. But it may explain the opposite effect by them, which you termed ” a slight boy crisis”.
truth be toldMemberThere are halochos about a Rebbe eating in front of his students
truth be toldMemberSimple- without that customer there wouldn’t be that delay…
truth be toldMemberisn’t that amzaing.. that by chassidim no crisis (actually there is a slight boy crisis)
I think there are more boys in Chasidesher Yeshivos than girls in Chasidesher girl schools, since some Chasidissen only have Yeshivos/Mesivtos and no girl school
truth be toldMemberif no personal reference, and many times its written to be displayed
truth be toldMemberWolfishMusings: If, however, one is not learning in a Bais Midrash (gasp! horror!)
Care to explain what the gasping and horrors are all about?

truth be toldMember1) as gavra_at_work mentioned, mussar is important. Try one of the Chofetz Chaim’s Seforim, any one, three times a week for a few minutes. To me, its easy to read but very motivating, even when the sefer is about Ahavas Yisroel etc., he always encourages learning.
2) As others said, an attainable goal- continuously, making a new one when completing the first..
3) Setting a realistic minimum amount of learning time each day that we will always do, even if on a “tough” day (travel etc) its accomplished with an English halocha review Sefer etc.
truth be toldMember“it is a Halacha. One must stand for someone doing a mitzva.”
truth be toldMemberSame reason why so many people who would never buy certain magazines fall in the internet dept.
truth be toldMemberYOSSI151: I have no clue. Someone once told me of a sefer written by the Abarbanel called “Yeshuas Meshicho”(I believe its out of print, at least several years ago when I looked for it), where he discusses that the Four Kingdoms will attack Eretz Yisroel in end.. beginning with Poras/Iran. I never saw it though, just repeating
truth be toldMemberto the exclusion of all other Jews
Where did he say or imply that?
truth be toldMemberthas true with u on that
Its true with just about everyone. Better off are those of us who realize it
truth be toldMember*I* feel guilty for making the people behind me in line wait
I think its healthy that way. There is a fine line between taking care of what has to and the complaining… As long as we feel uncomfortable doing it, and we remain as considerate as we can of others, it will keep us in check
truth be toldMemberI saw a respected Talmud Chochum in a restaurant with his wife, more than once. It was a quiet type of restaurant, only 1 or two other couples in that section.
truth be toldMembermosherose: Do the poskim say that about husband and wife notes (if it’s kept private)? Whch Poskim
truth be toldMemberWolf: If it will disturb others, then yes
How do you define disrubtive to others? A Beis Midrash is intended (generaly) to be loud. A library is indeed intended to be quiet.
truth be toldMemberWas it in there? towards the end of the Parsha, 34 20 and on?
truth be toldMemberHalomed b’lo zimrah, chukim lo tovim umishpotim bal yedoim
truth be toldMemberapushatayid: Sorry, that won’t do. Unless you cite the speific Rishon (you even plural) and where, it won’t do nor will it add to the discussion at hand. Thank you

truth be toldMemberLet me ask you the question. Why is he wearing the colored shirt and the colored nitted Yarmulka?
Now lets go further. If a guy wears a nice knitted winter hat, which covers his whole head (much bigger segulah for yiras Shomayim), would you want him for your daughter? Why not, is he less Frum? Does acceptance of other peoples mishugassin and ideals only work one way??
You know as well as I do, that a long jacket is a statement; a big peace symbol on the front or back of my shirt is a statement; a Knicks (or other sports team) Yarmulka is a statement; a colorfully knitted Yarmulkah is a statement; a colored shirt is a statement. Just as you have a right to state your ideals etc through your cloths, so too, do I have a right to reject you fro those ideals.
February 21, 2011 1:49 pm at 1:49 pm in reply to: Guys-things that a girl does or says on a date that makes you lose interest #743577truth be toldMembertruth be toldMemberThere is an old minhag to name from that weeks Parsha.
truth be toldMemberalways here: I cannot say the same
truth be toldMembertuted:
and that’s why it works the second time around.
Sorry to burst your bubble but, the divorce rate for second marriages is between 60 and 70+%, depending on which studies you choose. And it gets worse for third and fourth…
truth be toldMemberWhere do you get you have to stand for a godol or parent?
???? ???? ???? ????? ??? ???
Since when is a Kohen included? There is a different place where the Torah tells us to mekadesh a Kohain
truth be toldMemberI guess those born in Adar II are more fortunate.
A very simplistic question. All those signs ??? ??? ???? is only referring to the years where there is only one Adar?
truth be toldMembertuted: so you think the current (ever-rising) divorce rate makes sense? Do you also think that 90% of those who wanted the divorce are happier, more satisfied and more content, post divorce?
Divorce is a Parsha in the Torah. However, it is meant to be used on rare occasion, not abused
truth be toldMemberEverybody?!? Not me. Unless he/she/it is a grouch!
Would anyone ever consider picking themselves
truth be toldMemberapushatayid: Which Rishonim and where? Thanks
Until I see it I find it hard to understand
February 20, 2011 7:06 pm at 7:06 pm in reply to: Rov, Rebbi, Teacher, Principal, Kiruv Person, Therapist, Life Coach, etc.? #758857truth be toldMemberMy Rabbeim, for me by far. Different things at different times. That’s for the human messenger. I’ve always felt Hashem doing it
truth be toldMemberapushatayid: are those Rishonim you quoated talking about a girl under 12 by any chance? Thanks
truth be toldMemberWhat do you mean by magic applies? That magic cannot work during this month?
I didn’t know that those born in Adar 2 were sent to fight Amalek. Is it a gemora or midrash?
Off topic but interedting, Hitler YM”S came to “power” during Adar
truth be toldMemberaries: Wow. That’s all I can say.

Usually you add a – instead of a space. Chayav once changed her name from all together to add the spaces
truth be toldMemberfoolishly said that she wouldn’t “shtelzich” on such an issue.
What’s foolish about that? I would have thought a happy marriage, peace, and good relations with the in-laws are a worthwhile cause?
truth be toldMemberitcheSrulik: after Ashrei once the shatz takes the Torah, before he says Yehalellu.
truth be toldMembersmartcookie: She knows too much to be a teen. Also, as soon as she signed up s/he was busy starting several threads at a time.
truth be toldMembertruth be toldMembertruth be toldMemberPBA: Actually, my family does do it.
I heard it from two sources that I doubt ever knew each other. An 80 rebbe, as well as from a friend from Tennessee father (would also be about 80 now).
truth be toldMemberBetter yet, what are her other current screen names?
