PROBLEMS

MY WIFE TELLS ME THAT TO-DAY'S WOMEN AND YOUNG LADIES
ARE SURPRISED  WHEN THEY HAVE PROBLEMS IN LIFE,
SUCH AS SHOLEM BAIS PROBLEMS.
CHILDREN NOT BEING WELL OR NOT GOING THE RIGHT WAY IN YIDISHKEIT ETC,ETC,
THEY THINK BECAUSE THEY WEAR A TICHEL OR THEY BELONG TO A
CHASIDUS, LIFE WILL GO FOR THEM WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS.

ALL PROBLEMS IN LIFE ARE TESTS FROM G=D, AND ONLY HE CAN HELP YOU.
I DO NOT KNOW ANY PERSON RICH OR POOR REBBE OR NO REBBE
WHO DOES NOT HAVE PROBLEMSIN LIFE.
WE SEE RABBONIM AND REBBES WHO DO NOT TALK TO EACH OTHER
EVEN BROTHERS.
WE SEE FAMILIES WHO HATE EACH OTHER BECAUSE OF INHERITANCE.

BUT IF WE THOUGHT FOR A MINUTE THAT THIS SITUATION COMES FROM G=D
AND THIS IS MY TEST,THEY WOULD BEHAVE DIFFERENT.
WHAT IS WRONG  ?  WE DO NOT TEACH THE YOUNGSTERS WHAT BEING A YID IS ALL ABOUT
BUT WHO SHOULD TEACH ? THE REBBES OR RABONIM ?

GEDOLIM

I AM VERY UPSET THAT WE HAVE NO GEDOLIM OR RABONIM
TO LOOK UP TO TO-DAY.
LITVISHE, CHASIDISHE,
TAKE A LOOK AT SATMAR HOW CAN I LOOK UP TO THEM ?
THE TWO BROTHERS ARE FIGHTING.

BOBOV, THE TWO RABBIS ARE FIGHTING.
AND VISNITZ AND GER HAVE THERE OWN PROBLEMS.
BELZ HAVE HAD  PROBLEMS FOR YEARS.
I FORGOT PONEVEZ  AND OTHER LITVISHE YESHIVOTH.

I WOULD RATHER ADMIT THAT WE HAVE NO GEDOLIM TO-DAY
AND THEY ARE JUST THE SAME AS ORDINARY PEOPLE.
I DO NOT FIND ANYBODY WHO I CAN LOOK UP TO.
ALL THE EMPHASISE IS PUT ON TO CLOTH ETC,ETC,
BEHAVIOUR AND MIDDOS BEN ADOM LECHAVRO THE RABBONIM
DO NOT HAVE IT, SO HOW SHOULD THE CHASDDIM ? ? ?

BUT THEN I THOUGHT MAYBE THEY CAN'T BE GEDOLIM IN EVERY
POINT IN THEIR LIFE.
THEY CAN BE GEDOLIM IN ONE MIDAH OR BEHAVIOUR
OF THEIR LIVES.
EG: TZDOKA, LEARNING TORAH, LOVING ANOTHER JEW,
BUT IN THIS POINT WE HAVE LOTS OF JEWS WHO ARE GEDOLIM
EVEN IF THEY DO NOT COME FROM A REBBISHE OR RABBONUS
ORIGIN.

A JEW PRAYS AND BELIEVES IN G=D DIRECT.
NOT IN THINGS OR PEOPLE.

FACEBOOK AND THE INTERNET

I HAVE LATELY LOOKED ON FACE BOOK ,ON THE INTERNET.
I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT.
AND WHAT THE RABONIM ARE BANNING, AND SHOUTING ABOUT THAT THIS IS DESTROYING THE YOUTH.

THERE IS A COMMON DENOMINATOR OF THE YOUTH JOINING THE INTERNET ,AND NOT CARING ABOUT THE RABONIM.
AND THAT IS THAT THEY ARE LONELY , GIRLS AS WELL AS BOYS, NOBODY TALKS TO THEM , THE RABONIM DO NOT BEFRIEND THEM,  
BEFORE THEY TURN INTO DROP-OUTS.

THE ASKONIM ARE MORE WORRIED ,ABOUT SHECHITA BEING BANNED IN EUROPE,
THEN IF THEY WILL HAVE CHILDREN WHO WILL WANT TO EAT KOSHER.
THESE CHILDREN, AND YOUTH NEED ATTENTION ,AND LOVE AND WE HAVE NOT EDUCATED THE PARENTS TO GIVE THIS TO THEM.

LOTS OF PARENTS DO NOT SEE THE PROBLEM TILL IT IS TO LATE.
I USED TO WONDER WHY SO MANY KOLLEL YUNGERLEIT GO TO THESE TZDOKA PARTIES  AND GIVE MONEY THROUGH A CREDIT CARD  WHICH THEY DO NOT EVEN HAVE.
THEY ARE LONELY AND LOOKING FOR COMPANY.

I AM SURE THAT ONE OF THE ONLY PEOPLE DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THIS IS RABBI OSHER SHAPIRO.HE CAN VERIFY WHAT I AM SAYING.
SOMETHING IS WRONG THAT WE HAVE SO MANY DROP-OUTS.
I HAVE A LONG TIME AGO SOLVED THE PROBLEM IN BEING LONELY, AS THE BEIS YISROEL SAID TO ME MAKE THE RIBONO  SHEL OLAM  YOUR FRIEND.
I DO THIS BY PRAYING , MEDITATING , AND LEARNING LOTS AND LOTS OF TORAH YOU GET A FEELING THAT G-D IS NEXT TO YOU ALL THE TIME AND IS YOUR FRIEND.
