It's an old voice, but powerful and steady. It is my Zaidy saying the mourner's Kaddish for his father, whose yahrtzeit is Yom Kippur

A moving story, beautifully written by my daughter.

I love Zeides story, i'm lucky my family did not have to go though this terrible tragedies, but i think that Zeides stories are the ones we can not afford to not tell to the new generatons. Pleses keep writing, you do it so well i get tears in my eyes.
sorry for my pour english.

That is a truly inspiring story, and told mostly through the clear eyes of a child. I hope you will post more of the same. I thank you for lifting my mood.

Thank you for sharing this touching story.

This story reminds me of something my mother said to me a couple of years ago. My own Papa O"B"M, belonged to an Orthodox Shul when my mother was a little girl; anyways, my mother saw me swaying as I recited the Shmonah Esrai during High Holiday services one year. When I sat down, she whispered to me, "Papa would be so proud." Your story brought back that memory.
Thank you.

Each of us has two sides of our mind, the positive side and the negative side. When we realize that a thought now comes from the negative side we have to remind ourself that we can go to the other side, positive or stay within the negative side. We MUST THINK of our nature be it positive or negative. We can CHANGE our thoughts as we choose.

So inspiring! Few of us realize just how lucky we are until we read stories like this!
