Moshiach yavo
Baruch Hashem, I have no idea what’s going on.
What I can tell you, tho, is that there is such an ‘angry’ vibe in Eretz Yisrael right now.
We are being sold out and lied to – and so many people know that, or at least, can ‘feel’ that.
Which means that all this ‘anger’ is now popping up all over the place, including with our nearest and dearest.
I’ve been feeling like I’ve got zero tolerance and patience left at the moment – and it’s not like I had a ton of it to begin with.
The holiday was so good, I literally just watched logs burn for two nights in a row, and talked to my husband.
But today, I’m back in ‘the grind’ – and this morning I was back to feeling like enough already!!!!

I know so many of us are running out of the ‘giving’ vibe, right now.
Five long years ago, the Covid nightmare started….
And then, it morphed into the ‘war in Ukraine’ nightmare….
And the Biden ‘gender fluid’ nightmare, and all the crazy censorship that just keeps going up and up and up….
And then, it morphed into the ‘October 7’ nightmare….
And now what, exactly?
The ‘Abraham Accords’ nightmare?
The ‘Trump Towers in Gaza’ nightmare?
The ‘US just takes over Eretz Yisrael in entirety’ nightmare?

Whatever it is – I have no more energy to even engage with it any more.
I am putting my head down, concentrating on the good stuff in my life, thank God, working on trying to re-establish the more spiritual aspects to life, like visiting kivrei tzaddikim, attending the Rav’s prayers regularly, saying three Tikkun Haklalis every day, working on my bad middot….
I have my work cut out for me.
====
Part of the reason I really am trying to stay off the news totally at the mo, is that even the tiniest whiff of it gets me incandescently raging, about all the lies, corruption and evil going on.
I think I’m not the only one.
====
Meanwhile – even the ‘normal’ people are starting to talk about things like Moshiach coming, as the only solution to the problems that just keep piling up, here.
It’s kind of a strange turnaround.
On that note, one of my kids just sent me a link to this oldie by goodie, by Yosef Karduner.
Enjoy!

It is better to avoid the “news” if that’s the only way to remain emotionally disconnected from world affairs.
I experience this firsthand whenever I go to work. Over a month after the breathless reporting of Trump shutting down USAID (or 98% or whatever), I see a USAID office, STILL OPEN, in the Tel Aviv neighborhood I work in. Lies lies lies. What’s the point of investing anything into what we are told is happening when I can see for myself it’s posturing and lies.
on the cusp of adar we witnessed a very interesting so called cabinet meeting of the modern day king achashveroshwith charvona musk his aid de camp.we need to pray for a purim 2 resolution .how this will play out only hashem knows
For the good ‘news’, lots of hostages coming back with a renewed desire for getting in touch with H”.
Keith Segal only had a Conservative background in the US & had no contact with religion after making aliyah. While in Gaza he wracked his brain & remembered the Shma. Then he remembered the blessing on bread & made it over every manky pita, & finally saw people making mezonos on the TV & said it over every thing except the pita.
When he came back he was asked what he wanted & asked for a kiddush cup & wine! He’s not the only one. More people recognising H” is the only One we can rely on.
Rivka, sorry I am off the news most of the time and I sporadically read your blog. Not because it is not interesting. You are super interesting and intelligent! But I don’t think we are going to find the truth. The best speculation I found is about timeline of history being completely falsified. So maybe, just maybe, we are much closer to 6000…
