I CONCUR!!! Shalom Rabbi Tzvi.

Reminding me of the action of Nahshon's action while escaping the Egyptians. With Pharaoh's army behind them and the Red Sea before them, Nahshon jumped into the Red Sea, and the others followed trusting G-d.

Gotta Keep It Moving!

Don't j Just Stand There From a secular similar wisdom, read the excellent short business book "Who Moved My Cheese". Sounds like an unimpressive title, but, indeed, it is an impressive book and was a best seller. Reply

RE: Moving forward Because the Torah leaves room for a person to mess up. You can't be a tzadik by following instructions alone. Reply

Moving forward It is true we need to move forward and learn from past mistakes...So why eat foods that are unhealthy and put a kosher label on them? Reply
