I realized that for a first day to delve into such a matter of who I am, I didn't do so bad.


Didnt do so bad?? You did great!! Youve done more in that one post then many of us have done in years, im emabarresed to say.

I havent much more to say other than I Love you and i know G-D loves you too. Much more than any of us could!!

Thank you all who posted to my recent admission.  I have been thining about how to answer this question regarding holy?  You are all correct and I am holy.  I think the best way for me to answer this to myself is that I am not as religious as some here.  But SB and Eye, you are correct.  Everyone is holy.  And as I thought I wasn't I was proven wrong.  Thank you gentlemen.  You made me see something I didn't see.

Only returning the favor, since you've shown me things I never even realized many, many times...

SB, I have thought about it and thought about it, and being unique is a very wonderful thing.  I never looked at it that way before.

sci1977, It's great to have you here... I highly suggest joining the conference call this Sunday with Dr./Rabbi Fish. It's will be a unique experience. See the chizuk e-mails of the last 2 days for more info, or e-mail me.

W're all heading to the same place, but we've been placed on different roads...we just have to check our compasses every once in a while, and make sure that were heading in the right direction...

Compass would help on this journey. 

IT25, your right, you need to be looking for it.  If you don't look you will not find.

In my project SCI1977, who are you, I did discover something I am and want to share it with all of you.  Yesterday I discovered a part of me that is great.  While living I have found out I am a true family man.  I love my family, wife and kids especially.  They are the people that help you more then probably anything other then G-d.  I love being a family man.  It might sound simple but I guess I am simple when it comes to my family.  I love them unconditionally and vice versa.  My kids are amazing and everyone knows how I feel about my wife.  She is the best!!!  But family is the best thing for me.  They show me how to live on a daily basis and give me much joy.  I need that to continue on.  I really didn't know how much of a family man I was until I thought about and so glad I did.

The family is the basic unit - and being happy within that is fantastic, and fantastically important!

Feeling like this is where you belong, like things are "right," things fit.

Wow. It's like trying on a new suit, and realize that the old one didn't fit you at all - but this new one looks good, feels good, it's comfortable...it's perfect.

"What you're looking for, is right there at your door, believe me when i tell you friend, you couldn't ask for more, 'cuz what your heart has known, is that there is no place like hom - so come on back, oh, you'll never be alone..." (Abie Rotenberg)

Also, I am Jewish.  Maybe I overlooked that the last two days in my posts regarding this.  The part of being Jewish is something I don't even think about, I just am.  I hope you all understand what I am going to say.  I am certainly not a holy jew by any means.  I am not orthodox, I am a conservative jew that grew up in the suburbs in NJ.  I have been secular my whole life.  I now live south of the mason dixon line in one of the biggest growing areas for conservative jews.  I can't quote the torah, cause I really can't.  I can't speak hebrew.  I follow along here as best I can and if I don't understand something, I go and try and look it up.  I hope you all understand.  I don't use many hebrew or yiddish words because frankly I know how to say them and know what some of them mean but I am not going to pretend here.  It says if you are going to be serious about this site you must be honest.  I hope you appreciate my total honesty.  I have been arguing with myself over the past 77 days to bring this up.  I hope this does not make you think less of me as a person.  Let's all keep rocking GYE!!!
