OUCH!
I really learned so much from this lecture! Thanks Goldi! My 4 children and I spend a lot of time with mitzvot because we recognize our responsibility and honestly have a passion for Tikun Olam. My husband of 15 years is a workaholic and isn't with us most of the time. He is a good man and does what he can when he can. We recently got into an arguement because I was telling him all the things that he could improve on.....ouch! After listening to your lecture, I really need to look at me...ouch again! Thank you for your wonderful insights. Blessings!

the disposable world
You hit the nail on the head Goldie. Good to hear, again, that we Are a heavily influenced product of our environment. We do live in a disposable society But! as Torah Jews we must be reminded OFTEN that what makes us Torah Jews is because of what we kept, keep and will cling to! Like money, we are wealthy because of what we get to keep, not because of how much we get to spend. We are rich because of the Torah we kept. So grateful.
