holy is holy and good is good. How do you distinguish when all is bad? I see this everyday now in my life. I try to figure what I did wrong why do the good people suffer. why why whyw why. Why is the people who do rite get taken from us? Why is my wife so miserable. why is my son slow are these the wrong things to ask its not understood. Why do people dislike Jews. we went through so much. What are the answers. how do you do rite when you believe you are.
Why are we here? What are we? So many questions.
My level was great now I crashed and burned.. why. What can I do. where do you go. I watch my children grow and get smarter everyday and I thank G-D for that. This is all I have. .

Waters of the Flood
Good News or Bad News?
The text states: “the people were evil; the flood erased them from the earth”. However the Midrash equates the flood waters with the waters of creation which are pure and holy; is it good news or bad news? Is Torah in heaven or on earth?  (29:46)
