great!
Your best video yet! I hope one day your son will set them free, and they develop a culture out of appreciation for the great one who released them, then they'll roam the earth, teaching Freedom is Yours!

The Fish World
Chana dear, everything you write, I read, with interest! You are a gifted writer and from every passage, I learn and grow!Your piece on the plastic life is a great comparison to our own lives.

We adore fish in our home and now there is a different focus for me as to what is represented here.

Thank you for the analogy and your important words and thoughts.

Much gratitude and many blessings,

Looking forward,

DRB

Expecting Moshiach Today
15 Shevat, 5741 • January 20, 1981
The Previous Rebbe was once approached with the following dilemma: You profess to expect Moshiach’s coming “immediately.” Yet, at the same time, you make long-term plans, as if expecting exile to continue for the foreseeable future?

Bring Moshiach Now!
Purim, 5747 • March 15, 1987
The Talmud, 1,500 years ago, already stated, “All ‘end-times’ for the Redemption have passed, it now awaits only repentance.” In 1941, my father-in-law, the Rebbe, launched an intense campaign that “Immediate repentance will bring immediate Redemption.”

Transmit the Message
7 Shevat, 5752 • January 12, 1992
Transmit this message to my followers: Moshiach is coming very soon, and they must be prepared to receive him properly!
Acts of Goodness and Kindness
12 Cheshvan, 5752 • October 20, 1991 | 21 Iyar, 5751 • May 5, 1991
To a CNN reporter: “Moshiach is ready to come now, we all must only do something additional in the realm of goodness and kindness.”

G-d is With Us in Exile
Lag B’omer, 5744 • May 20, 1984
Exile is a state when the world does not fully endorse the truth. Throughout history, Jews have risen above many attempts to discredit and hinder their devotion to G-d, and so must we do.

Exile + 1 = Redemption
19 Kislev, 5745 · December 13, 1984
Hebrew, the Holy Tongue, is utterly precise. In Hebrew, “Exile” is called “Golah.” But this very word also hints the path to redemption. By inserting the letter Alef, the word “Golah — Exile” becomes “Geulah — Redemption.”

Ad Mosai? Until When?
Hoshana Rabba, 5744 · September 28, 1983
Concerning the future Redemption, the prophet declares, “I will offer thanks to You, G-d, for Your wrath,” for at that time, the good hidden in all mankind’s suffering will be made clear.
