Today I again saw the hand of the Creator, as He directs the world in His unfathomable way. But this time with the opposite result. The worst kind. 6 Comments Posted
When I think about the innocent old days, when we hip kids were able to rebuild societies, and how we were always able to leave the doors open in our community-open to all friends, new and old, I remember feeling the way that you do...how precious young motherhood is, how little precious time we hav eto spend with those loved one s who stay and visit with us for only 20 years.
Your letter is beautiful, and I feel so happy for your children, as well as for yourself.
I onlyhope that your friend is able to hear and to see the soul of her own loved one revisit to stay in touch with love and security.
We all need a lot more safety in this day and age.
Lots of love to you and your poor grieving friend...

Sara Esther, this article is really well-written!!! It is powerful and what you say is so true. We all have to learn how to live our lives in the PRESENT! We have to thank G-d for everything that we have, and for the fact that we wake up in the morning.
When our kids keep us up at night screaming, instead of being annoyed we have to be THANKFUL...
Thank you for sharing this article with us.

You have written a beautiful article, and G-d is the only Judge. No one knows what a single soul requies but G-d. When we hold on to a higher knowing we understand and are able to love deeper and be alittle more wiser. There is always life under life and death happens as being an extension of life.

When we think about the past, we wonder what we could have done differently. When we think about the future, we are already there, and neglect the present. G-d is one, and we are one as Jews. When the past "I", and the future "I" cease to be, we are truly here, and He is with us. We connect with G-d, and each other when our three garments of thought, speech, and action are active in the present studying Torah, praying, and perfoming Mitzvot. We are here when we perform acts of kindness and chariity. In the words of my teacher Rabbi Lev Friedman, "the atheist and secular Jew wonders if G-d exists, the Chassid wonders if we exist?" So we live, and trust in G-d that nothing happens not even an acorn falling that he does not allow and cause. We strive, work, are at times happy, and often suffer, but must believe that we are exactly where we are supposed to be. We cannot choose what happens, but can choose to approach and live every day of our lives with faith and joy
