That one prolly belongs in the things that make you say hmmm thread. There is such a thread around here.

For today I'd like to offer the thought, that those who grieve the hardest, soar the highest.... Its truly abt the churban beis hamikdosh and I think, if we interpret the 'grieving' as being sincerely disturbed enough to make a change, then it applies to us too. 

a saying for today

The great French Marshall Lyautey once asked his gardener to plant a tree. The gardener objected that the tree was slow growing and would
not reach maturity for 100 years. The Marshall replied, 'In that case, there is no time to lose; plant it this afternoon!'
-- John F. Kennedy

i have it in confidence from Mrs. Miriam Poppovitch that supercalafragalistic in yiddish is geshtaltzemfleegen


(seriously, it means about the same thing, basically a word for when all the other words fail, without any real meaning)

if you don't get enough sleep how will you have strength to recover?

and maybe the reason we ever got into trouble in the first place is because we did not go to sleep on time

so keep at the Chamomile tea
