hmmm.... i know i have a hug here somewhere..............

i got to doven with a minion today(on time ) even tho , i was up late last nite . all my kids are healthy and shabbos  is coming !........ 
i think shabbos is a hug itself . when i use it right . its just what i need .

Couldnt agree more. I love shabbos and all that iot brings with her.

You keep on counting your hugs, you just dont realise that Hashem never let go of you!!

he has you firmly in his grasp.

Good point, Reb G!

The truth is that we're pointing out the times when hashem's hug is noticeable to us - but it IS important to remember that he's constantly holding onto us!

The Ramban on parshas Bo explains that through the Nissim Geluyim we see the Nissim Hanistarim. same here. By looking for the obvious and open hugs we will end up seeing thst every second of the day is a another hug!!!

i had a wonderful shabbos , with my wife and kids. i came up with a nice idea and spent some much needed quality time w/ my little ones . when H" lets things work  out  for me i feel like he's showing me he sees i try and he appreciates it . thanx H' for a great shabbos and a great family. 

H' made a beautiful day today  ! just for me ! 8) just so i could walk in it and feel and see his wonderful world and feel happy to be alive and able to enjoy it. did anybody else see the beautiful day today or was i the only outside today ?  ;D

hug: tear ducts working fine bH. Even tears are a bracha

Mine too, 7up, mine too.  :'(

hug : i'm still alive tho i feel dead .H" holds me and keeps me going tho i dont know how . i feel like garbage but H' must think i'm ok , i' m  not dead yet . ...  :
that helped .

Ok. hugs are everywhere . i just need to find them . i realized that i blame H' for a lot of things that are my decisions and my fualt . that keeps me from feeling hugs ,b/c i think i;m getting slaps . i'm healthy . i have a brain that works.  H' gave me a good family , really good kids and a good wife . a good job . for a religious jew.  and a good upbringing . i'm pretty lucky . we;ll  start like that . every thing else is extras
i want to try and get back to basics . trying to be too fancy .
   

i can talk to my children and they talk to me . we communicate to each other . tell our feelings. there is an openness between us . those moments  i have with my children just b/f they go to sleep when they tell me whats in their hearts and their  problems (even tho' i know part of it is a ploy to stay up ),is something worth a million dollars . a hug i am very grateful for . 

That's incredibly sweet...I hope I have hugs like that!

LV!!!!! Im missing your daily hugs!!!! :-\ :-\ :-\  :'( :'(
