Thank you I wasn't going to leave a comment at first but the irony of your message struck me. When i downloaded the Jewish.tv app, i was looking for a specific video and didn't expect much but so far i enjoy what I've seen such includes your videos. I asked my friend the other day, "what does G-d want from us?", he said, "Love. As imperfect as we are, he wants our love."

So, you're answer was magically timely. Reply

objectively reality Honestly, it is hard to imagine that you can always keep in day to day life this mindful thought line which is going through all your videos, and which is mixing in one whole picture. Its amazing how u can hold all these ideas in one simple thought! In my eyes, you look like superhuman who have mastered all negativity which comes from outside world. I really would like to see something similar to this videos, were u can speak at the same level for let's say an hour. I want, and i need to have a reliability that such holy life truly possible. Thank you Rebbetzin Chana Weisberg for your love! (I'm sorry if i said something bad, but i speak from my heart)

Thanks for your Rosh Hashanah message in which simple gestures of encouraging others through kind words is all that is needed.It seems the art of communication is essential to understand the other and to know their sense of humour,culture and way of doing things.What i have learnt is no other person thinks as you do so it is important to understand the other even though english is communicated we have to understand the others terminology.Often in my experience when i have considered the other a freind he may not be thinking in that manner.If i ask a person whether friend or foe? and if he says neither i would not know what to say.

True ! Feedback is essential for learning processes, as we Psychologist say.... but sometimes is not easy to give any feedback, because the role of educator is not easily and not free risk taken, ann even the educator needs reward .... Reply
