Need a nice place for crowd that includes MIL (don’t know age), DIL (24), all the way through till boss (1 yr). A place that no one here knows about (wouldn’t want to meet up with anyone here)
And I’m stuck trying to find a place suitable for our whole family… When will I get rescued…
I don’t think HaShem needs to have faith in anyone. And Judaism is a bit more than that religion that calls for “all you need is faith in… all else is but minor technicalities”. No, Yidden have a Torah to follow. Emunah is an important thing… many other things follow. Having a clear trodden path in YiddishKite is important. Very important.
And again, there is no need to go around (and around) with that “wake up tragedy calls..” thing again (and again). As the Gemarah says somewhere ???? – ???? ????? ?? ????
A mentor or better yet a Rebbe, Manhig is there not only for the times a follower thinks he / she is in need of assistance. A Manhig is as its definition – one who leads, guides. A fool may delude himself into thinking he is in no need of guidance, he knows it all etc., while inside he is rotting away. A Manhig will get someway to point it out, to get him to reverse course. This is especially true of those who follow a true chasidish lifestyle. Each in their respective courts, each has a Manhig, who one is connected, heart and soul, down here where life takes place, and in the afterwards… read chassishe seforim…
See what (Zohar?) says about ???? ?? ????? ?? ??? ????? ?, you might be in for a shock!!
.. he then brings a mashal (parable) of a Rabbi who needed tapes of his speeches..
Don’t know which area you’re from, I highly doubt the Chovas Halevavos had access to tapes his days.
Someone here’s terribly mixed up. Refusing the blessings of a Rebbi, Rosh Yeshiva, Gadol etc. has nothing to do with the need of one to have a living guidance… Don’t think one should offer the “key to success in Judaism” before one truly knows what Judaism is all about. And some things are not DIY try-me-out kits. Some things in YiddishKite, most importantly Hashkafa, have to be taught from a mentor.
When I need help, I go to the Godol (unspecified) who knows me best, through and through. He directs me as how to daven, learn, live like a Jew. That is what YiddishKite is all about. We don’t make our own roads, paths. We follow our Gedolim whoever they are. ?? ?? ????? ??? ?????, especially someone who confesses to be “chassidish”, this was one of the foremost characteristics, to follow a Manhig.
We ALL Daven and “GO” to HaShem. For help, for gratitude, for closeness. It’s the Tzadikim who guide us. Without that step one is sure bound to get disillusioned, confised etc. Read what Seforim say about this..
Wrong!! I won. I closed it before even opening!

What charliehall said.
its not ok
-29, duly impressed!!! Since when do Moderator wax on the sublime?!?
Others would request you at least write “lehavdil” toch sloshim yom. Not to equate r”l this man-made festival with one divinely ordained.
No, I heard that peanut butter and then soap removes other stubborn things regular detergents don’t. Maybe it’s worth a try.
Peanut butter and soap?
Wow!!! I can’t believe how silly I once was… (and still am)
Were those really mine?!?
If it’s cold outside, how’d you come in without a coat? Should I take it off outside???
yeah, some catch on…
Feivel, you forgot your keys???
They grabbed ’em away, one dark ally, these guys are dangerous!! -80
That why they generally travel in the direction the driver is facing..
Maybe you have less ‘things’ than chametz crumbs. By me…
B”H I have one less thing to worry about. It’s been ages since I had a car with a working horn (gasp). And I live in NYC (gasp again).
And to all other cars unfortunate enough to get in back of me, I say the pasuk ???? ??? ????? ?? ????.
Annoying someone is an aveira.
Actually I’d like to do that to my house. Pick it, up turn it over, and shake it out!
I once wrote a long one on this. Maybe a bit too busy these days…
The gist of it was something to the effect of that HaShem, who has provided for us in the past, with or without an advanced secular college education, can do so quite easily in the future. For as long as there are humans treading this here earth.
?????? ????? ???? ?? ??? ??? ??? ???? ??? ????.
Might I remind you, He is still in the driver’s seat!
Not to kill another.
Not to injure another.
Not to do damage to another.
Most frum drives observe these mitzvohs.
WB, SiDi, long time no sea..
Anyways maybe next year I’ll make (more) holes in the car so that all chametz falls directly out.
I Kashered my car today. Took about 5 and a half hours. If you saw what it looked like, you’d understand. (problem was I lent it out and got it back with ????? – ??? ????, all around the place)
Whoever finds another cheerio in my car can keep it FREE. (limit one per family)
29, no, you could strive to be more holier, kinder, more thoughtful being. As long as you’re alive, (I suppose you are) you can achieve much. You could be!!! Trust in yourself. You made it nearly to the top, you’re a MOD!!!
take it from a lowly little froggie
How did a Bubby become a man?
That I did many years ago.
It was a breeze!!
My, my.
You guys are one month early. You forgot, we added an extra month this year!
ZD: nor does anyone else. But when one learns in a sefer and then comes across individuals “met” in the entertainment media, one subconsciously connects, and that is very damaging.
As it is, the media today, even “kosher” stuff, dulls the brain so much, educators have a real hard time combating those effects and after effects, when trying to teach from a black and white stationary book or sefer. Trying to teach concepts, ideas. Kids who have and use these media outlets have a much harder time sitting in and learning.
I made the mistake on year and bought my kids a presentation that just came out, thinking there could be nothing wrong. OK, a lot of parts were cute (“Help!! He’s killing the gods!!”..) But to envision our founding fathers as depicted in the goyishe entertainment industry’s image – nope, not a good idea at all. I pulled it.
No, Avraham Avinu and Sara Emeinu certainly did not leave Charan as hero and heroine smiling, holding hands!! And I’d rather my children don’t get that picture!
A gutte Voch. A gutte Yoch. A gutte something.
Our great Creator up there, in His Wisdom decided to create each in his/her own unique form, never before used or imitated. Masterful artist that He is, each one is truly a masterpiece, a refelection of its designer! ?? ???? ???? ????.
Cleaning rooms.
Baking Matzhos.
Golfer: Please don’t you or anyone else (besides Frogette) feel bad for me. OK. I’m not really breaking out in a sweat… there’s something called “dramatic effect”.. And yes, I do get a bit nervous, especially when I read how far others are holding, but I’m not exactly freaked out…
And yes, I do make an especial effort to clean and work with a simcha’dig atmosphere. To have in mind why we’re doing it, for whom we’re working. I do try keep my family ( Frogette included) upbeat, with that elated, expectant, excited mood. It’s just my inner sense of reality that gets to me from time to time. Funny thing, every year we forget that somehow we made it the previous year!!
Queen: NOT REALLY joking. Joking about turning over and resuming my sleep… How, for heaven goodness do you find time now for crocheting?!?
Thanks (and no thanks) Queen! B”H Chasuna is in the summer, not imminent, still a lot extra to tend to this year. Baruch HaShem!! Chasuna is ??”? in Eretz Yisroel, so preparations are of a different (and uncharted) nature.
And the cleaning… 1 / 8!! Yes, this makes me a bit more than anxious… I break out in a cold sweat in middle of the night… then I turn over and resume…
It’s just this time of year.
Mine too. I think it’s in the water. It’s dirtier at this season, so it clogs up faster. On Shabbos we practically had a trickle.
My home, Brooklyn.
Where the word jungle was invented.
There’s a concept known as baby-proofing.
Another idea is supervision. And Tefillah!!
Hatzlacha (and belated mazel tov)
NOTE to all with little, curious cuties; be especially careful now, at this time during the Pesach cleaning season, with all cleaning agents and detergents. Some are REALLY DANGEROUS!!!
