Stories and Miracles but no Parsha

 

I’m angry, very angry at myself

 

Do you ever feel that way? Sometimes, albeit not fully my/your fault but circumstances make me/you fail to live up to my/your own goals. It could be missing a birthday of a relative or friend, or a goal or not listening to my gut and buying the wrong stock or hiring a poor electrician or plumber.

 

Sometimes, we think we are young supermen and can do anything, Other times we are lucky and study a cram sheet on a Shakespearian Play and get 100% on the test because we could not learn for it. Such a thing happened to my friend Dov Lebovitz in the Soviet Ukraine. At that time he was busy attending the famous Bratzlev Chassid who was protected from the Gestapo by Nazis, lived to 108 and create the Na Nach song. 

 

Dov was worried and angry at himself. He had cut a lot of classes to assist the famous Tzadik and now was the final. He had studied one subject out of many in the class. The Rabbi assured him that everything would be OK.

 

The day of the final exam came. The Teacher/Professor announced that the final was based on one question picked at random to write and explain the subject. Dov went to the desk and picked up the question. It was on the one subject that he had learned. He received a very good grade.

 

 

Oh, where oh where did the Parsha go-Rachamim Pauli

 

 

With the exception of a few times my wife and I took a cruise, I have not missed a weekly Parsha. I had three bouts with pneumonia, colds, three operations in various hospitals even a few days in the hospital beyond that and I have not missed a Blogspot Parsha.

But now a strong cold with lack of sleep from coughing and sneezing has defeated me.

Ble Neder next week I will have a double Parsha. The birth and order of the birth of the tribes are too important to skip.

 

Neither do I want to repeat something I wrote 10years ago or do a slob job on the Parsha. I strive for quality.

 

 

MIRACLE - man who was seriously injured in Tuesday’s Jerusalem bombing was spared from what could have been a fatal fate by none other than his book of Psalms – or Tehillim in Hebrew – which blocked a shard of debris from piercing his body, said Shaarei Tzedek Medical Center. https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-723608

 

 

Bus Stop Bombing miracle. A man normally would have been at the bus stop at the hour the explosive device went off, but his wife did not need the car that morning and he drove to work.

 

Not a miracle but his Gilgul in this world was over. Aryeh, was excuse by the Mashgiach to be in Shiur. However, he felt that a strong cold would not stop him and he went to catch the bus. May his memory be blessed and his soul go higher and higher.
