January 11, 2010 12:27 pm

how come everyone notices how special a person is only after they pass away? we should start appreciating people more then we do now not when they pass away!
MOSHIACH NOW!

Noo!!!!! Tragedy takes on a whole new meaning when it involves someone you know. I knew her not well, only as a familiar face, and yet, I feel there’s an emptiness now in the streets she walked, in shul, and in my heart. Hashem ad mosai!!!!!!!

Boruch dayan Haemes to both the Roetter and Azoulay family.
I just listened to a classby Rabbi Y. Jacobson on theyeshivah.net website on Parshas Shemos 5770. It was such chizuk after hearing somay tragedies. I advise everyone tolisten to it in this time of sorrow for Klal Isroel. The point was that we cannot understand the ways ofHashem and are notaloudtoeven pretend wedochas v’sholom. We have to praye and besseache Hashem to show us His Midass Harochomim.
May we all be able to open our eyes and great Moshiach NOW!

A Poem by Pesha Leah A”H: the way one looks – Three meanings I have found to this seemingly simple phrase, Which is really not so simple and can be translated in many ways. – the way one looks – The very surface appearance, just skin deep, doesn’t go very far, It’s okay to appear different, as long as you are proud of who you are. – the way one looks – The main thing is not how well or what one physically can see, Some with less sight, have a vision that guides them with clarity. – the way… Read more »

A terrible News
January 7, 2010 9:59 am

Rav Mendy Azoulay is our Rav in Brussels – Belgium especially for the Month of Tishri. He even came again this year to help us out with Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur but Pesha Leah couldn’t make it this time even if she did it the year before just after their wedding.

Mendy is also A FRIEND and I had the chance to meet his wife .. I am wordless.

The Shoul of “Rogier – Brussels (Belgium)” join the whole Family in their pain.

May Hachem protect them.

I heard in the name of Harav Greenglass in Montreal he should be well.

He said I don’t won’t to go to the next world SO I DONT ASK QUESTIONS!
And explained that the only answers come after 120 so don’t ask. But I would say that just ask hashem for help.

SOO SPOOKY!

‘I AM NOT MESHICHIST, NOT EVEN CHABAD, BUT THE REBBE zt”l SAID…..’
how culd u even say this?! the rebbe lives on, and ur theory of ‘WE NEED A PUSH, A ‘GENTLE’ REMINDER….’ is completely opposed to what the rebbe says! as lubavitchers, we know mshiach is HERE!

MOSHIACH NOW! LONG LIVE THE REBBE!

to all......
January 7, 2010 7:46 am

ALL THIS: WHY? HOW COULD IT BE?

ARENT U ALL SUPPOSED 2 B LUBAVITCH?

I AM NOT MESHICHIST, NOT EVEN CHABAD, BUT THE REBBE zt”l SAID MOSHIACH IS ON ITS WAY! WE JUST NEED TO REVEAL HIM ! AND IF WE ARENT DOING OUR JOB TO REVEAL HIM, WE NEED A PUSH, A ‘GENTLE’ REMINDER. HASHEM TAKES THE PEARLS AS A KAPORAH….

MAY THIS BE A KAPPORAH FOR ALL OF KLAL YISROEL, AND WE MERIT TO SEE THE END OF THIS GALUS!

AMEN

January 7, 2010 4:15 am

The sky is dark The clouds are thick Everything is cold. The ice is dangerous This winter night Hope seems lost Warmth is just a dream A faint, whispering memory Where is the light? I can not see. I’m falling, tripping over the ice. Screaming in pain. I hate this cold. I hate this dark. I wish it could end, But that seems impossible. There is no end in sight. In fact, there is nothing at all in sight. And when all hope seems gone When all my dreams seem shattered, A tiny ray Breaks through the clouds. A burst… Read more »

from her fb page, her fav. quote
January 7, 2010 4:11 am

How Could it Happen ——————- You ask me, “Why did G-d allow it to happen?” You recognize that everything in this world has purpose and meaning. Examine any aspect of His vast Creation, from the cosmos to the workings of the atom and you will see there must be a plan. And so you ask, where does this fit into the plan? How could it? I can only answer, painfully, G-d alone knows. But what I cannot know, I need not know. I need not know in order to fulfill that which my Creator has created me to do. And… Read more »

to link,,,i check out the link on what she wrote about the holtzberg’s and there she quoted this: On Wednesday, we had finalized the details.

“I just was working with the companies,

Waiting for confirmations regarding transport.

On Wednesday night, my husband delicately mentions,

“Were you planning a trip to India?

I don’t think that is a very good idea,

There are terrorist attacks.”

Isn’t Your cup full? How many more tears must we shed? Isn’t it hard enough? Isn’t it time for this darkness to end? You watch our struggles, I know that You feel all of our pain. But we still move on, Asking, are the losses worth the gain? Well, isn’t Your cup full? How many more tears do we need to cry? Every test hurts, And we ask You, please tell us, WHY? Is there a reason? Oh, when will You reveal Your plan? It hurts so much, Yet deep down, I know You understand. But, isn’t Your cup full?… Read more »
