So..whats news with the jews? its been a busy week as usual, some crazy things and some crises, BH its friday and tonight is Shabbat Kodesh! I was reading this Dvar Torah that was saying that when the elders of Midyan and Moav came to speak to Bilam about cursing Klal Yisrael, yet it seems that soon after Midyan is gone from the story. what happened? it seems that Bilam told the messengers to stay the night so he cud check with G-d to see what He was saying and then he'd get back to them, the next morning teh midyanim left. why? bcz they realized "is there a father that despises his son?" so they left, knowing that it was not a good plan. But why? why did they have to wait till they got to Bilam to realize this, didn't they know this already? the answer is quite a simple one. when we are caught up in the moment, when its all exciting and busy you don't have time to think, you act with your emotions not your intellect. when we take the time to breathe, to refle...

I'm sitting here on Marta coming home from school and this dude comes  on obviously gender challenged wearing a spider man halter top with  spider man hippy flairy pants.. And he is busy waxing lyrical about the importance of being yourself.. when some people get on to marta u know its going to be a show. usually i try to block them out, bringing the volume up higher shutting me eyes and with this guy i did too, initially.  but then he was going on and on, in a not quite a whispery fashion, and the more he spoke the more intrigued i was. i started typing as fast as i could trying to get all the words he was saying. as we went under the tunnel, i was straining to hear him..and then before i knew it, i had to get off and i even seriously debated staying on longer to hear what he said.. so what was it that he said..im sure ur insanely curious..ill try to get some of it out. each thing he was saying was blog worthy in itself. the first thing he was saying was the importanc...

so this next post is in response to a challenge i got early last week but seeing as i havent been so good abt bloggin im finally getting around to it..so here i go.. this friend of mine is quite the character, full of personality, funk and fun. when she talks to her mother a transformation takes place, i always can tell when she is talking to her mother because her tone of voice changes, she sounds different, her voice takes on the tone of an aidel maidle knaidle and it cracks me up every time cuz its so unexpected and i am thoroughly impressed. we all know the importance of kibud av v'em. and we know that eisav would change his clothes before serving his father (yitzchak just btw) and somehow the concept of changing clothes every time a parent calls for you doenst seem so realistic or possible at this point.by the time u get changed and dab on some lip gloss..its probably too late to do whatever it is they wanted from you in the first place. yet we are commanded to treat our...

So i was doing some serious driving, and gotten directions from google maps to get there and of course got lost on the way anyways but finally thanx to the kind-hearted souls in the south i eventually made my way and on the way back of course i was in a bit of a predicament cuz after i had gallivanted all over town i was a bit not sure exactly how to make my way back, but that didn't stop me from driving along anyways and at the red light i motioned to the lady in the car next to me that i had a question and she proceeded to blatantly ignore me (really rude i know!) and then at the next light the lady's window was broken and couldn't roll it down so i continue on (still not knowing where i am going) and then finally, at the next light a normal looking guy with his window down nonetheless presented himself and asked him how to get the highway and he looked foncused at first he asked us where we were going, home, we replied he then told us to "follow me" so then i d...
