Rabbi Yehuda Lave Build On Your Successes Every time you accomplish anything, you do so based on your inner resources - your traits, emotional states, talents, and skills. These are all gifts from your loving Father and King, Creator and Sustainer of the universe. Once you have actualized potential, it is yours for a lifetime. From there, you can keep building. Knowing this will give you a sense of confidence that will enable you to accomplish much more in the future. Be aware of what prevents you from accomplishing even more than you already are. Love Yehuda Lave via Max Edelkopf What do you call an Aaron Kodesh with a lock on it? A SAFER TORAH... Southern Israel - Trip to Eilat | Timna Park with a drone Sometimes you have to make shabbat work for you Last week Shabbat began in Anchorage, Alaska at about 22:15 and ended at 23:45. At Chabad for lunch we sat with a woman from Beit Shemesh who was sent there by her company. They do not have any customers in Alaska, nor do they have any business associates.  This shomer Shabbat Israeli company is a subsidiary of a Virginia company for whom they provide programming and web services. The Israeli group was working against the clock to finalize a new project, which had to be implemented before the end of the weekend, due to new US legislation.  Failure to complete the project by the deadline would cost the Virginia company millions. However the Israelis were not getting approval for the project and as they came down to the wire they realized that they might not finish the project by Shabbat, and therefore might miss the deadline. And go explain that to Americans who had never worked with Jews nor Israelis. So… they sent an employee from Israel to Anchorage which is 11 hours behind Israel, and where Shabbat begins 16 hours after Israel, so that she could continue to work on the project after Shabbat began in Israel. As additional backup they also sent someone to Hong Kong who could pick up the gauntlet a few hours after Shabbat began in Anchorage, when Shabbat ended in Singapore. By the time Shabbat began in Israel approval had not yet been given to go ahead. But by mid morning she did receive the go ahead – and was able to work all day to complete the project and meet the deadline. Who says you can't run a shomer Shabbat company successfully?   Lost in the 50's a nostoglic piece flash mob by the boys from the R' Steinzaltz highschool on kibbutz Kfar Etzion.

Beneath the long, straggly branches of an old willow tree. Disillusioned by life with good reason to frown, for the world was intent on dragging me down. And if that weren't enough to ruin my day, A young boy out of breath approached me, all tired from play. He stood right before me with his head tilted down, and said with great excitement , "Look what I found!" In his hand was a flower, and what a pitiful sight, With its petals all worn, not enough rain, or to little light. Wanting him to take he's dead flower and go off to play, I faked a small smile and then shifted away. But instead of retreating he sat next to my side, and placed the flower to his nose and declared with overacted surprise! "It sure smells pretty and it's beautiful too. That's why I picked it, here, it's for you!" The weed before me was dying or dead. Not vibrant of colors, orange, yellow or red. But I knew I must take it or he might never leave. So I reached for the flower, and replied, "Just what I need." But instead of him placing the flower in my hand, He held it midair without reason or plan. It was then that I noticed for the very first time. That weed-toting boy could not see, he was blind. I heard my voice quiver, tears shone like the sun. As I thanked him for picking the very best one. "You're welcome, " he smiled, and then ran off to play, unaware of the impact he'd had on my day. I sat there and wondered how he managed to see, a self-pitying woman beneath as old willow tree. How did he know of my self-indulged plight? Perhaps from his heart, he'd been blessed with true sight. Through the eyes of a blind child, at last I could see, the problem was not with the world: the problem was me. And for all of those times I myself had been blind, I vowed to see the beauty in life, and appreciate every second that's mine.

But this is not possible in the world in which we live. In the totality of our lives we will experience a wide range of human emotions, not all of them the ones we would choose for ourselves if we could have total control over our feelings. So now we have a choice. We can acknowledge our emotional reality at any given moment and from there work our way to true serenity. Or we can deny our true feelings. We may deny our insecurities, anxieties, worries, frustrations, disappointments, etc., and think that because we want to be serene, these feelings do not exist. Let us state clearly: Only by being in touch with your feelings will you be able to truly experience serenity.

We in the United States   have all heard the haunting> song, 'Taps...' It's the song that gives us the lump in our> throats and usually tears in our eyes.>>>> But, do you know the story behind the song?  If not, I> think you will be interested to find out about its humble> beginnings.>> Reportedly, it all began in 1862 during the Civil War, when> Union Army Captain Robert Elli was with his men near> Harrison's Landing in Virginia . The Confederate Army was on> the other side of the narrow strip of land.>>> > During the night, Captain Elli heard the moans of a soldier > who lay severely wounded on the field. Not knowing if it was > a   Union or Confederate soldier, the Captain decided to > risk his life and bring the stricken man back for medical > attention.

This is the real roots of so many things. Johnny Cash & June Carter singing Jackson at the Ralph Emery Show. This is from 1967.They all are the real Johnny Cash Johnny Cash sings "Man In Black" for the first time (with intro) Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson & Chris Stapleton at John Lennon's 75th Birthday Concert 12-5-15 Old Woman An old woman rode up, got off her old mule and tied it to the hitching post. As she stood there, brushing some of the dust from her face and clothes, a young gunslinger stepped out of the saloon with a gun in one hand and a bottle of whiskey in the other.   The young gunslinger looked at the old woman and laughed, "hey old woman, have you ever danced?" The old woman looked up at the gunslinger and said, "no,... I never did dance... Never really wanted to." A crowd had gathered as the gunslinger grinned and said  "well, you old bag, you're gonna dance now," and started shooting at the old woman's feet.   The old woman prospector -- not wanting to get a toe blown off - started hopping around. Everybody was laughing. When his last bullet had been fired, the young gunslinger, still laughing, holstered his gun and turned around to go back into the saloon.   The old woman turned to her pack mule, pulled out a double-barreled shotgun, and cocked both hammers.  The loud clicks carried clearly through the desert air, and the crowd stopped laughing immediately.  The young gunslinger heard the sounds, too, and he turned around very slowly.  The silence was almost deafening. The crowd watched as the young gunman stared at the old woman and the large gaping holes of those twin barrels. The barrels of the shotgun never wavered in the old woman's hands, as she quietly said, "son, have you ever kissed a mule's ass?"   The gunslinger swallowed hard and said, "no ma'am... But I've always wanted to."   THERE ARE FIVE LESSONS HERE FOR ALL OF US.   1 - Never be arrogant.   2 - Don't waste ammunition.   3 - Whiskey makes you think you're smarter than you are.   4 - Always make sure you know who has the power.   5 - Don't mess with old people; they didn't get old by being stupid.

Can't see images? Click here... Rabbi Yehuda Lave Discouragement Discouragement comes from one thing, and one thing only: thinking discouraging thoughts. Changing the content of one's thoughts changes the entire picture! Discouragement often comes from one's limited self-image. When you view yourself in a positive light and see what you've done as valuable and important, even though things didn't work out the way you were hoping, you still feel positive about the effort you put into doing something worthwhile. You know that effort is up to you; results are up to the Almighty. You realize that your own value and worth are constant, and then think about your new wisest course of action for now. If you ever feel discouraged, you can say to yourself, "Right now I am feeling discouraged because of the thoughts that I am thinking. What are some wiser thoughts that I can think right now?"

Paraprosdokians are figures of speech in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is surprising or unexpected and is frequently humorous. (Winston Churchill loved them).    1. Where there's a will, I want to be in it.   2. The last thing I want to do is hurt you ... but it's still on my list.   3. Since light travels faster than sound, some people appear bright until you hear them speak.   4. If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.   5. We never really grow up -- we only learn how to act in public.   6. War does not determine who is right, only who is left.   7. Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.   To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is research. 9. I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you. 10. In filling out an application, where it says, "In case of emergency, notify..." I answered "a doctor."   11. Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the street with a bald head and a beer gut, and still think they are sexy.   12. You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice.   13. I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.   14. To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.   15. Going to church doesn't make you a Christian, any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.   16. You're never too old to learn something stupid.   17. I'm supposed to respect my elders, but it's getting harder and harder for me to find one now.   Sadly this is true!   Spread the Laughter, Share the Cheer,   Let's be Happy while we're here!   Shania Twain - Don't! warning this video is romantic Shania Twain Turns 50, Tours, Prepares New Album Shania Twain - Medley (Live @ Superbowl XXXVII) Shania Twain On The Affair That Shattered Her Marriage: 'Humiliating For Me' Shania Twain & Oprah - Part 1 of 3 See you Tomorrow Love Yehuda Lave Rabbi Yehuda Lave Your mailing address Contact Phone Website LIKE TWEET FORWARD You received this email because you signed up on our website or made purchase from us.
