hmmm...

If I'm subjective then I don't see the situation properly, and can't make the appropriate judgement.
However, if I were to be objective, like perhaps you are, then for sure I cannot see the situation properly.
Understand?
Need I elaborate?
Takke a problemo, don't ya think?

The trick is to be subjective with the advantage of objectivity.
Or the opposite.
Be objective while being the subject.
Is that possible?
Don't know.

OA

- 288-8888

- "Overeaters anonymous,

How can I help you?"

- "How can you help me? How can you help me?!?
Um... I need help changing my tire!
Duh, I overeat!
And what part exactly is anonymous here?
That I am overweight?!? Why? Do I look so slim?
That I overeat? Well what do you think, I got like this from
Omayn, yehei shmei rabba?
Sheesh!

RRRRRAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Sometimes one feels like screaming with all their might, to kinda let it out.

Now is one of those times.

What weighs....

pun intended.

...When I get a gift - and it is not even my birthday.
...When I get flowers - for no reason.
Some say it is like having a stranger do you a favour.
I say it is more than that.
To me it means more.
It actually means something.

So thank you to all those that thought of me.
Hey, ya and round is a shape. Boo hoo.


Favours from friends are not my thing - it's like getting a gift on your birthday.

Hayom Yom

A chassid creates an environment.
If he does not, he must demand of himself: What am I doing in this world?

The Rebbe began to weep...

The following is a very moving and uplifting “Yechidus” that took place with an IDF commander and the Rebbe, regarding the Death of two Israeli Soldiers following the Yom Kippur war in 1973. it's an Excerpt from the new book on the Rebbe to see more information about the book click: www.inspiringageneration.com

The military officer asked about something which had been troubling him for a long time. In a devastating fashion, his close friend Zurik was recently murdered during a terrorist attack, just two years after Zurik's losing his brother Udi in the latest war. It was inconceivable that one family should deserve to bear so much anguish, losing two members in a short span. How could G-d have permitted this? Where was He?

Distressed at the tale of sorrow and unable to control his tears, the Rebbe began to weep. He finally replied, “Indeed, the story you tell me is frightening and upsetting; we are tempted, when hearing such an account, to question G-d and conclude that He does not really dictate what transpires in this world. We must, however, remember that we mortals cannot aspire to understand the intricacies of His divine wisdom.

”Having studied Torah all my life, at seventy-three years old and still studying and adding to my Torah knowledge, I feel that I have attained a level of wisdom. Nonetheless, the extent of my wisdom is ridiculous when compared to G-d's. Therefore, we must not come to preposterous conclusions based on our judgment of events around us. Although there is much we do not comprehend, often in retrospect we come to an appreciation of the righteousness of His decisions. Perhaps time will demonstrate the virtue of Udi's and Zurik's premature deaths; perchance, many Jewish fatalities were avoided as a result of these casualties.“

I hope this stuff is reliably accurate.


Not a happy day in Yerusholayim...

.... to put it mildly.

ON FAITH ALONE...

To lead one's soul to true joy -
Think deeply and picture in your intellect and understanding the subject of Hashem's true unity.
How the Aibershter permeates all the worlds... encompasses it....it is all filled with His glory.
He is ONE alone.
Everything is nullified before Him...Etc. Etc.

613 Mitzvos were given to the Yidden -
came Chabakuk and based them all on a single one -FAITH.
For through faith alone one will come to fulfill all the 613.

That is - when your heart will rejoice and be glad with your faith in Hashem's unity, (as though this was our only Mitzvah, for we would surely fulfill it with utmost joy) then this joy will allow our soul to soar above all obstacles that keep us from fulfilling the 613...

When we have this awareness - of Hashem's true unity - it will help us overcome anything that will stand in our way of fulfilling Hashem's Will - the Mitzvos.

Very Very b'kitzur of today's Tanya.
Thank you lessons in Tanya.

All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt.

Sometimes I lie awake at night, and ask, 'Where have I gone wrong?' Then a voice says to me, 'This is going to take more than one night.

The secret to life... replace one worry with another.

Chof Zayin Adar

Wow.
16 years ago.
T'was three months before M. was born.
I was SO SURE he was gonna be born in Geula.
How else was one to comprehend the sitch?
I was fantasizing how wonderful his birth was gonna be.
How painfree.
Hmmm....

stam.... as i said it would be...

Oh whyyyyy does everybody make so much fun of me....

Put your uzi down, it's just the tune in my head....

Benevolence

I am utterly amazed at this woman's kindness. And I still cannot figure out why. Why is she so generous towards me? Why is she doing this for me? Telling me because my child is well-behaved and gives her not an ounce of trouble, is not a reason not to charge. To tell me that she has her parnossa... is also not a reason, one can always use more. I am so ... um... so... don't even have the words to express so what. Just so greatly amazed (ya, that's a good word) by this kind of kindness - well that would be pun intended - by this kind of altruistic behaviour.
I am filled with the emotional impact of overwhelming awe for such.
(It makes sense.)



AHHH, you see, c, now you not let a me to write in fluff manner anymore..... AHHHHH

From deep inside....

I cannot tell you how much and from how deep inside of me I thank you and am so grateful to you that you are here with me.
Boruch Hashem.
You had the b'chira chofshis to be anywhere in the world. And you chose to be here - with me.

No words can express the dankbar'nish that I have for you.

The Aibershter sees your kindness.
May he please rain an abundance of revealed brochos onto you.
You should have Menuchas Hanefesh and Menuchas Haguf .
And be so happy for the good you are doing.

May we hear b'suros tovos, and of course the ultimate b'suro tovo - the arrival of the Moshiach Now!

Toda.

Gan Paz

I've been itching to go to Gan Paz for some time now. The tree is full of over-ripe oranges.
Today I took the liberty, thinking I was all better to go. Oh boy, I overdid it. It sent me right back to bed... :(

I'm gonna get better, I will, I will. I know I will. One day, very soon, I will be able to do as much as I want. I better get better. I could have written this in the "fluff" or "wannabe" (?) style - but didn't...... Heheheee. Anyhow.
And that my friends is the life of O'reilly. No idea who that is, just felt like saying that.

Boruch Hashem

Hodu Lahashem....Ki lolam Chasdoi!

Praise be the Aibershter.

Today I can breathe - without pain.
Today I can walk - without pain.

I am grateful to the Master Healer.
For I was thinking yesterday....
What is the point of one existing in sheer pain?
The only reason I came up with was -to clean my neshomo.
Okay, so now I have a clean neshomo.
Boruch Hashem.

Really though, what is the idea?
What does one gain from pain?
And I'm talking bout people, far keinim gedacht, that have physical suffering ongoing and ongoing ,oy, I can't fathom that.

I heard people walking and talking outside...
Fortunately or unfortunately they don't know to appreciate their every step, their every breath.

For some reason this song is in my head..

Gegaingen iz a ingele,
In feld tzuvish'n zaingen.
Un dort hot ehr,
Der ingele a faygeleh gefangen...

Oy I don't remember the rest..

Correction - on brilliance

Dr. Igasaki doesn't fit to be on my top five.
I would like to remove him, okay so yes his choice of words were clarifying, but not worthy enough...
I would rather, MUCH rather, put my brilliant tochter -
Et Habat Sheli - Mushka..... hehee jk her too, but for real
Habat Hagdola.... poo poo poo k"eh.

Her depth, her breadth, her understanding...
Wonder where she gets it from.... hehe.

AND oh my how could I have forgotten the Rabbi Dr. AB.
My favourite bil.
He is keh takke Barilliyant. Poo Poo Poo....
Maybe that is why I like to be around him...
Not that he shares much of his brilliance with me, but I know it's there.
Whatta mind he has.
Woah. Keh.
The Aibershter should give him long and healthy years...
