I enjoyed your talk, but the talking of the audience takes away from it because we can't hear what they say and we miss your wisdom. Reply

Sad It is so sad that this discussion is limited to technology, cars, luxuries in my opinion. These false gadgets of social interaction will be the cause of future mental health issues.

Yet, if you look at articles and comments in various places on ChaBaD one finds the biggest problems people face are Isolation, inability to connect with fellow believers due to distance. Losing faith because they have no immediate confidence, educator, mentor or support.

Make someone happy, smile, and communicate with people - start sharing your life with fellow people in your community. Reply

I appreciate this lesson so much. "G-d is in control" is a Torah principle addressing even personality types. Reply
