WHAT A REBBE IS FOR

A FEW YEARS AGO THERE WAS A FAMILY IN STAMFORD HILL WHO HAD A VERY ILL FATHER, THE DOCTORS R.L.HAD GIVEN UP ON HIM.
THEY WENT TO A FAMOUS REBBE (I do not know if the gabboim made the price or the rebbe). 
THEY HANDED OVER £50,000 AND THE REBBE BLESSED HIM HE SHOULD GET WELL
A FEW WEEKS LATER THE MAN DIED R.L.
THIS FAMILY DEMANDED THE £50,000 BACK.
THERE WAS A BIG ARGUMENT THE GABBOIM SAID, A REBBE CAN ONLY BLESS A PERSON, HE CAN NOT PROMISE.
I SEE THIS TOO MUCH TO-DAY IN A LOT OF CHASSIDIM AND HEIMISHE YIDEN. 
THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT A GADOL BTORAH IS, EVEN A PROPHET DOES NOT KNOW THE FUTURE. 
AS THE SONG GOES THE FUTURE IS NOT OURS TO SEE.
THERE IS A STORY FROM RABBI YANKELE FROM PASVORSK FROM ANTWERP.
SOMEBODY WAS PESTERING HIM DAY IN DAY OUT HE SHOULD TELL HIM THE LOTTERY NUMBERS HE WAS VERY TOLERANT TO HIM.
ONE DAY REBBE YANKELE TURNED TO HIM AND SAID: " IF I KNOW THE LOTTERY NUMBERS I WOULD DO IT MYSELF."
A REBBE IS THERE TO BRING YIDEN NEARER TO YIDISKEITS.
 LOTS OF TIMES HIS BLESSING COMES TRUE AS THE STORIES GO,  LOTS OF BOOKS HAVE BEEN WRITTEN ON THESE STORIES, BUT AS ONE REBBE SAID: " BIGGER BOOKS CAN BE WRITTEN ON THE TIMES THE BLESSINGS HAVE NOT BEEN SUCCESSFUL. " 
LOTS OF YIDEN REPLACE THE REBBE WITH THE RIBONO SHEL OLAM AS IF THE REBBE KNOWS THE FUTURE.   

WHAT IS YIRAS SHAMAYIM

THE SFAS EMES BECAME REBBE VERY VERY YOUNG. HE FELT THAT THERE WERE SOME OLDER CHASIDIM WHO COULD NOT BEND TOWARDS  HIM AND ACCEPT HIM THAT HE WAS REBBE IN GUR.

THE SFAS EMES CALLED THEM INTO HIS ROOM AND TOLD THEM A STORY.

THERE WAS A GROUP OF YIDEN CHASIDIM WHO CLIMBED A MOUNTAIN TO GET TO THE TOP. IT TOOK THEM A FEW YEARS.

WHEN THEY GOT TO THE TOP THEY WERE ALREADY OLDER MEN.

SUDDENLY ON THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN THEY MEET A YOUNG BOY.
THEY ASKED THIS BOY HOW DID YOU GET UP HERE ? ? 
HE ANSWERED THEM: " I WAS BORN UP HERE." 

BEING A YIRAS SHAMAYIM IS KNOWING THAT YOU ARE BORN FOR A PURPOSE. FINDING  YOUR AIM IN LIFE AND THAT THE RIBONO SHEL OLAM PUT YOU ON THIS WORLD FOR A PURPOSE.
 NOT TO BECOME A REBBE OR ROV OR ASKAN OR HEADMASTER, ETC ,ETC, BUT TO SPREAD G=D'S NAME AND TELL PEOPLE YIDEN OR GOYIM THAT THERE IS SOMETHING ABOVE THAT IS YIRAS SHAMAYIM.

ASK YOURSELF HOW MUCH ARE YOU PREPARED TO PUT YOURSELF OUT TO TELL PEOPLE THAT THERE IS A G=D THAT IS TRUE YIRAS SHAMAYIM.

WHEN TWO PEOPLE COME TOGETHER TO HAVE A CHILD HOW MUCH DO THEY THINK ABOUT THE THIRD PARTNER THE RIBONO SHEL OLAM  ? ? ? WHO IS PRESENT.

THE MORE YOU THINK AND ARE AWARE THAT THE RIBONO SHEL OLAM IS PRESENT THE HIGHER UP THE MOUNTAIN YOUR CHILD IS BORN.

YIRAS SHAMAYIM IS NOT THE SIZE OF YOUR TICHEL OR STREIMEL ETC, ETC,

YIRAS SHAMAYIM IS THINKING OF G=D EVERY TIME AND ALL THE TIME WHAT EVER YOU ARE DOING. 

BEFORE HASHEM

I WAS STANDING AT A BUS STOP A 254-BUS CAME ALONG AND I JUMPED ON IT
GOING TO STAMFORD HILL.
AFTER A FEW STOPS THE BUS STOPPED AT A BUS-STOP AND THE DRIVER ANNOUNCED OVER THE MIKE:  "THIS BUS WILL STOP HERE FOR TWO MINUTES. "
I WATCHED AS ONE BUS AFTER ANOTHER 254-BUSES OVERTOOK THIS STANDING BUS. 
I FIRST FELT: WHAT A PITY I JUMPED ONTO THE FIRST BUS, BUT THEN AS USUALLY AS I PRACTISED IN MY MIND ( To teach me to rely everything  comes from hashem and know that it is his world and not mine ).
 THE SAME AS I DO NOT RUN TO A BUS IF THE RIBONO SHEL OLAM WANTS ME TO CATCH A BUS, I WILL CATCH IT AND I DO NOT HAVE TO DO EXTRA EFFORT.
 ( This has to be done with all your deeds in life).
ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT THE  RIBONO SHEL OLAM, RUNS EVERY MOMENT OF YOUR LIFE AND THIS IS A WAY TO TRAIN YOURSELF IN THIS MIDDO.
I WAS VERY PLEASED IN THE END THAT MY BUS OVER TOOK ALL THE BUSES AND ARRIVED IN STAMFORD HILL FIRST.
AS IS WRITTEN IN THE IGERES HARAMBAN:
 " IN ALL YOUR ACTIONS,WORDS AND THOUGHTS,ALWAYS REGARD YOURSELF AS STANDING BEFORE  HASHEM."

A NESHOMA IS VERY PRECIOUS

AN ASKAN OR ROV, HEADMASTER, HEADTEACHER,ALL THE PEOPLE INVOLVED IN COMMUNITY AFFAIRS HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT A YIDDISHE NESHOMA IS A VERY PRECIOUS CREATION.
IF A PERSON INVOLVED IN THE COMMUNITY LIKE A ROV IS TOO FRUM AND HURTS A PARENT OR CHILD AND THIS PERSON LETS DOWN A TEAR TO THE RIBBONO  SHEL OLAM, THAT DOES NOT GO UNANSWERED ! !
I ONCE TOLD THIS TO THE LATE RABBEZEHN PINTER A.H. WHEN SHE REFUSED A CHILD TO THE SCHOOL.
SHE ANSWERED ME,  " THAT IS THE SACRIFICE YOU HAVE TO MAKE WHEN RUNNING A SCHOOL. "
I UNDERSTOOD HER AS I MADE A SACRIFICE WHEN I MADE A PROGRAM FOR TELEVISION, WHICH I USED TO PUT OVER MY POINTS IN YIDISKEIT ( I was never given a chance by the frum media ) AS MY WIFE SAID ON T.V. MY CHILDREN ARE MARRIED AND THEY RESPECT MY HUSBAND AS THEY UNDERSTAND WHAT HE STANDS FOR. ( I can only bless you that your children should be the same)
 I ONLY WAS PUT TO SHAME OR SHOUTED AT.
 THAT WAS MY SHAME AND I ACCEPTED IT.
BUT WHEN RABBONIM AND ASKONIM DO NOT LET CHILDREN INTO SCHOOLS OR PUT UP NOTICES AGAINST PEOPLE,
I AM NOT SURPRISED AT THE SERIOUS TROUBLES IN OUR TOWN I DO NOT WANT TO GO INTO DETAILS.
THESE NESHOMAS LET DOWN A TEAR TO THE RIBONO SHEL OLAM. 

THIS IS NOT THE JEWISH WAY

I READ IN THE LETTER PAGE ( your write lines ) OF THIS WEEKS UPDATE 10/04/2014. THE LETTER STARTS TO ALL THOSE CONCERNED:
THIS LADY IS COMPLAINING THAT SHE CAN NOT AFFORD PLAY-SCHEMES AND STARTS THE LETTER WITH  THE WORDS  "PAIN IN MY HEART."
IT IS WITH PAIN IN MY HEART THAT SHE HAS NOT BEEN EDUCATED THE TRUE TORAH WAY OF LIFE THAT THERE ARE RICH AND POOR.
THE COMMUNIST WAY OF LIFE IS AGAINST THE TORAH.
LOTS OF TIMES IN THE TORAH IT RECOGNISES THESE FACTS THAT THERE ARE RICH AND THERE ARE POOR E.G.  BY THE OFFERINGS.
I DO NOT HAVE TO BOW DOWN TO THE RICH IN OUR COMMUNITY AS EVERYTHING COMES FROM G=D ALSO YOUR SITUATION.
  THE RICH HAVE THEIR CHALLENGES AND THE POOR HAVE THEIRS.
THE CLEVER PEOPLE, AND THE STUPID HAVE EACH BEEN MADE TO SERVE HASHEM AND HAVE THEIR  VALUE AND PURPOSE IN LIFE.
EVEN IF YOU DO NOT SEE IT ( you need to be re-educated in Torah life).
WE HAVE TO TEACH OUR CHILDREN AND ADULTS THAT YOU HAVE GOT WHAT G=D WANTS YOU TO HAVE.
AND YOU DO NOT NEED TO FEEL BAD IF YOU CAN NOT AFFORD WHAT THE OTHER PERSON HAS.
G=D DID NOT WANT YOU TO HAVE IT AND YOU ARE NOT MORE OR LESS WITH THE AMOUNT OF MONEY YOU HAVE IN LIFE.
I AM PLEASED THAT THE WRITER OF THIS LETTER DID NOT WRITE HER NAME AS SHE MUST BE A  B.T. AND DID NOT HAVE PROPER YIDDISHE EDUCATION.
 SHE WRITES THAT ALL CHILDREN NEED TO HAVE EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES, A RICH PERSON MAKES A DIFFERENT WEDDING THAN A POOR.
POOR AND RICH MUST UNDERSTAND THAT  THERE IS A DIFFERENCE. 
THE RICH HAS A DUTY TO HELP THE POOR.
THE POOR HAVE A DUTY TO KNOW THAT IT CAN NOT AFFORD AND WANT WHAT THE RICH MAN HAS.

 YOU MUST LIVE YOUR LIFE WITH THE OPPORTUNITIES YOU HAVE,
 THAT 'S WHAT G-D WANTS.

DOUBLE PARKING

IN THE NEWS UP DATE THIS WEEK  10/04/2014
YOUR WRITE LINES:
M.K. WRITES A POEM ABOUT DOUBLE PARKING.
I THINK THAT THE BIGGEST OFFENDERS OF THE DOUBLE PARKING ARE
THE SCHOOL VANS. THEY DOUBLE PARK EVEN IF THERE IS PLACE BY THE KERB.
THE WORDS "BETTER LATE IN THIS WORLD THEN EARLY IN THE NEXT"
I PERSONALLY DO NOT SEE THE NEED OF THESE VANS, LET THEM WALK. 
THE PARENTS WANT TO THROW AWAY ALL THE RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THEIR CHILDREN.
VANS TO SCHOOL, PLAY SCHEMES,
DO YOU THINK A CHILD FEELS WANTED BY THE PARENTS ? ? ? 
IF YOU CAN NOT COPE, GO TO A ROV AND A DOCTOR.
WISHING YOU ALL NOT SO KOSHER BUT A FREILCHEN PESACH WITH YOUR CHILDREN.
HOW YOU BRING THEM UP WHEN THEY ARE SMALL THAT'S HOW THEY WILL BE WHEN THEY ARE BIG.  

PLEASE EXPLAIN

IN THE LOCAL AND NOT SO LOCAL NEWSHEET, UPDATE,  MIDWEEK, LOST AND FOUND ADVERTS THERE ARE ALWAYS LIKE THIS:
FOUND KEYS OUTSIDE BERRY'S VILLAGE.
NO DATE WHEN YOU FOUND IT.

THIS ONE IS EVEN BETTER:
FOUND BOYS BLUE COAT WITH VELVET COLLAR SOME TIME AGO.
WHAT DID YOU DO TILL NOW ? ? ? 

THIS ONE IS THE BEST OF THE ALL AND THERE ARE LOTS LIKE IT.
FOUND LIGHT BLUE BABY BLANKET CHOL HAMOED SUKOS ( which year )? ?
WHAT DID YOU DO WITH  IT TILL NOW ?
DID YOU USE IT THE WHOLE OF THE WINTER ? ? ?

READING THROUGH THESE ADVERTS IS MY LAUGH OF THE WEEK. 
 I FEEL ASHAMED THAT I AM LIVING WITH SUCH STUPID PEOPLE AROUND ME.

IN THIS WEEKS MIDWEEK ADVERTISER WEDNESDAY 9 APRIL 2014
LOST:
The apron cover of the Teutonia pram- colour black about a year ago possibly in mini cab

WERE HAVE YOU BEEN TILL NOW ? ? ? ? ?
IN THE GIVE AWAY SECTION A PERSON IS GIVING AWAY A NAVY TEUTONIA PRAM WITH ACCESSORIES

THIS IS THE BEST ONE OF THIS WEEK
FOR SALE
Brand new 2 piece women's outfit never worn.
Brand new still boxed Russel hobs mini chopper.

WHY DID YOU BUY THEM  ? ?

CAN THIS HAPPEN TO DAY

THERE WAS AN INDIVIDUAL WHO IMMIGRATED FROM BAVEL NAMED HILLEL HE HAD STUDIED UNDER THE TWO GEDOLEI HADOR,SHEMAYAH AND AVTALYON.
THE BROTHERS BNEI BESEIRA ( who shared the position of nasi ) 
THEY SENT FOR HIM AND ASKED HIM :
DO YOU KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THE KORBAN PESACH OVERRIDES SHAABBOS ?
HE EXPLAINED THE TORAH STATES  B'MO'ADO - ON ITS DATE REGARDING THE KORBAN PESACH.
THEY IMMEDIATELY APPOINTED HIM NASI OVER THEM AND SEATED HIM AT ITS HEAD.
ACCORDING TO THE SEDER HADOROS THIS INCIDENT TOOK PLACE IN THE YEAR 3728 THIS IS BASED ON THE GEMORA SHABBOS 15-A THAT HILLEL BECAME THE NASI ONE HUNDRED YEARS BEFORE THE DESTRUCTION OF THE SECOND BEIS HAMIKDASH.
MY POINT IS, CAN YOU IMAGINE THIS HAPPENING TO-DAY THAT SOME ONE GETS UP IN FRONT OF KEDASSIA OR  ANY BEIS DIN AND THE RABBIS SEE THAT HE IS CLEARER THEN ANY OF THEM IN UNDERSTANDING TORAH. THE ROV STEPS DOWN AND THIS PERSON BECOMES  THE ROV ! !
OR LETS SAY IN A CHASIDUS WHERE THE SON OR RELATIVE OF THE LAST REBBE BECOMES REBBE. 
THE REBBE SEES THAT THERE IS SOMEONE IN THE COMMUNITY WHO IS OF A HIGHER CALIBRE THEN THE REBBE.
THE REBBE STEPS DOWN AND THIS CHASSID BECOMES REBBE.
TO-DAY WE HAVE NO TRUTH IN YIDDISKEIT ONLY WHICH  ROV OR RABBI CAN BAN MORE AND MORE THINGS, HE IS THE SUPERIOR HUMAN BEING.
 THEY HAVE NO UNDERSTANDING OF THE PEOPLE AND THE COMMUNITY THEY LIVE IN, LOOK AT THEIR LIFE STYLES ! ! !
LIKE THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND IS FAR AWAY FROM THE PEOPLE OF ENGLAND AND THEIR PROBLEMS,  SO IT IS BY MOST RABBONIM AND GEDOLIM. 

PASS-OVER (headlines)

THE STUPID HEADLINES IN THIS WEEKS JEWISH TRIBUNE 3 APRIL 2014.
DELAYS IN PASSPORT PROCESSING CAUSE HAVOC FOR ANGLO-JEWISH FAMILIES, IN ERETZ ISRAEL TRYING TO REACH ENGLAND FOR PESACH.
IN LONDON WE HAVE MR NOACH SCHWARTZ RAISING FUNDS FOR TOMCHEI YOTZEI ANGLIA WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT THEN FAMILYS NOT BEING ABLE TO COME TO ENGLAND FOR PESACH.
YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS IN ERETZ YISROEL MY REBBE, THE BEIS YISROEL OF GUR Z.L. WHOULD NOT LET FAMILIES TRAVEL BACK AND FORWARDS LIKE TO-DAY.
 IT IS NOT NECESSARY THEY HAVE A FAMILY OF THEIR OWN THEY CAN LEARN TO BE ON THEIR OWN WITH THEIR FAMILIES AND WIFE.
THIS WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME, IF THEY WENT TO WORK AND IT WAS THEIR  OWN MONEY THEY WOULD NOT BE WASTING MONEY, AS IF THERE IS NO TOMORROW.
TO MR POSEN AND RABBI NOSON JAFFE WHO HEADS THE CHARITY TOMCHEI YOTZEI ANGLIA THIS IS A BLESSING IN DISGUISE ( not headlines in tribune).
TO RABBI NOSON JAFFE,  YOUR JOB IS TO HELP THE YOTZEI ANGLIA IN ERETZ YISROEL NOT THEIR PASSPORTS.

OBITUARY

I AM SURE EVEN WHEN I AM DEAD ALL THOSE PEOPLE  WHO HAVE NOTING GOOD TO SAY ABOUT ME NOW WHEN I AM ALIVE, WILL FIND SOMETHING  GOOD TO SAY  ( that they think I did good  ).
MOST PEOPLE HAVE VERY LITTLE UNDERSTANDING OF THEIR FELLOW HUMAN BEING, NOT EVEN THEIR PARTNER ( understanding another human being is very complicated ).
I WAS READING IN THE HAMODIA 3 APRIL 2014  ON REB MENDEL HOCHHAUSER Z.L HIS OBITUARY, I REMEMBERED A STORY THAT HAPPENED YEARS AGO WHEN I USED TO DAVEN IN THE AGUDA 95 STAMFORD HILL.
REB MENDEL Z.L. OPENED A SIDDUR AND SAID THE THREE-FACETED BLESSING AFTER FOOD FROM A SIDDUR .
HE TURNED TO ME AND SAID: " I USED TO ALWAYS SAY THIS BLESSING BY HEART,
LATELY I REALISED THAT I WAS LEAVING OUT A WORD, FROM THAT DAY ON I SAY ALMOST EVERYTHING FROM A SIDDUR."
LIKE THE OBITUARY IN THE HAMODIA WRITES HIS DAVENNING WAS PERFORMED WITH CONCENTRATION AND DEDICATION, HE SAID CLEARLY EVERY WORD.
 I REMEMBER THAT OVER SIXTY YEARS AGO THERE WERE THREE VERY GOOD FRIENDS AND YOU COULD NOT PART THEM,
REB  MENDEL HOUHHAUSER Z. L
YBLC"T   REB  MAX FREUDENBERGER. AND REB  KALMAN  BERKOVITS, THE YETZOR HORAH WANTED TO BREAK UP THIS VERY GOOD FRIENDSHIP, THEY WERE IN BUSINESS TOGETHER AND WERE ALL VERY SUCCESSFUL (  but this was all a plan from the yetzor  horah ).
AS ALWAYS MONEY BRINGS A DISPUTE AND THEY NEVER TALKED TO EACH OTHER EVER AGAIN.
 RABBI MORDCHE YOSEPH KAMIONKA  SHLIT"A TOLD ME A FEW TIMES THAT THIS DISTURBED HIM VERY MUCH.
I WAS NOT SURPRISED WHEN THE HAMODIA WROTE THAT MANY SOUGHT HIS COUNSEL AND ADVICE IN BUSINESS DISPUTES,WHENEVER HE WAS CALLED UPON TO ARBITRATE.
HE ALWAYS REMEMBERED HIS FRIENDSHIP WHICH WAS BROKEN UP THROUGH MONEY DISPUTES.
WHO WAS RIGHT I DO NOT KNOW TILL THIS VERY DAY BUT WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT IN THE LAST SIXTY YEARS I HAVE NEVER SEEN A FRIENDSHIP LIKE THEIRS.
