SHALOM DEAR READERS:
I HOPE THAT THIS TIME OF YOUR READING THIS MONTH'S BLOG, THAT YOU ARE FARING WELL.
SINCE THE CORONA VIRUS IS ALL OVER OUR WORLD, MANY OF US ARE CONCERNED NOT ONLY FOR OUR WELL BEING, BUT FOR OUR FAMILIES, FOR MANKIND IN GENERAL.
IT TRULY SHOWS US THAT WE ARE NOT IN COMMAND OF THIS PLANET, OUR HOME BASE. WE CAN WORRY, BUT WHAT DOES IT DO US? WE CAN JUST SAY,
"WHAT THE HECK, I AM GOING TO DO WHAT I ALWAYS DO". WE CAN TAKE COVER IN OUR HOMES AND LIVE IN FEAR.
AND WE CAN BE MORE VIGILANT IN WHERE WE DO GO AND IN WHAT WE DO.
LIFE CAN BE AND IS AT TIMES MORE SCARY. SO PRUDENCE SEEMS TO BE THE BEST CHOICE, ALWAYS AND ESPECIALLY NOW.
AS WE GO THROUGH OUR TRIALS OF HEALTH, BOTH MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY, WE REALIZE MORE AND MORE THAT WE ARE NOT IN CONTROL. BUT WHAT WE CAN DO IS TO BE MORE VIGILANT , PRACTICE GOOD HEALTH CONDUCT AS BEST WE CAN, AND LIFE AND TO TAKE THE TIME TO BE THANKFUL THROUGH OUR PRAYERS, OUR MEDITATIONS, AND TO TAKE LIFE AS IT IS.
I PRAY FOR ALL OF MANKIND ON THIS EARTH , FOR ALL WHO ARE CONCERNED WITH OUR IMMEDIATE HEALTH ISSUES, AND FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN HIT BY THE CORONA VIRUS.
AS PURIM IS UPON US, G. WILLING, AND SOON EASTER, LET US BE THANKFUL AND MINDFUL OF WHAT WE DO HAVE INDEED, AND WISH ONE ANOTHER ON OUR PLANET GOOD HEALTH.
G. BLESS US ALL.
UNTIL WE MEET IN APRIL, G. WILLING,

ALONG LIFE'S JOURNEY, FEB. 2, 2020
SHALOM/HELLO
I WISH THAT I COULD HUG EACH ONE OF MY READERS PERSONALLY, BUT I DO SO IN SPIRIT AND I HOPE THAT MY WISHES AND PRAYERS GIVE YOU SOME STRENGTH AND COURAGE TO CONTINUE ON YOUR JOURNEY OF LIFE.
THIS MONTH I AM CONCENTRATING ON THE WORD/THEME 'PATIENCE'. HOW MUCH PATIENCE DO WE HAVE FOR SMALL BABIES AND CHILDREN, FOR SMALL ANIMALS, TO ONE ANOTHER, TO ANOTHER ILL PERSON THAT YOU KNOW?
EACH ONE OF ALL HUMANKIND HAS A TENDER NESHAMA, INCLUDING 'our own. EACH ONE BORN TO THIS WORLD IS LIKE A SOARING BIRD, AN ANGEL OF HASHEM. HE/SHE HAS THE ABILITY TO SOAR HIGH AND TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS WORLD. 'PATIENCE' IS THE ANSWER TO ALL WHO SUFFER AND WHO NEED THAT EXTRA TOUCH OF UNDERSTANDING AND DEED.
NOW, I ASK MYSELF AND ADDRESS YOU, HOW MUCH 'PATIENCE' DO WE HAVE FOR OURSELVES? WE SO DESPERATELY WANT TO BE HEALTHY, WE WANT TO BE A FULL ACTIVE BEING, ALTHOUGH WITH SOME LIMITATIONS. BUT AT PARTS OF LIFE, WE'LL WEATHER IMITATIONS, AND THE LOSS OF OUR ABILITY TO 'DO IT ALL'. I BELIEVE THAT WE TEND NOT TO HAVE ENOUGH PATIENCE FOR OURSELVES!, FOR OUR NEEDS, AND WE EVEN GET ANGRY AT OURSELVES FOR THE LOSS OF CERTAIN ABILITIES.
WHY DO I WRITE ON THIS TOPIC THIS MONTH? I FIND THAT I NEED TO BE MORE 'PATIENT' WITH MYSELF, WITH WHERE I AM ON MY RIDE ON THE TRAIN OF LIFE. I AM NOT THE SAME PERSON WITH THE SAME CAPABILITIES, AND AM AWARE OF MY NEED TO BE MORE 'PATIENT' WITH MYSELF, AND TO ACCEPT HELP/DEVICES TO ENHANCE MY LIFE ALONG MY JOURNEY OF LIFE.
IN SUMMATION, I ENCOURAGE ALL OF US, TO PRACTICE 'PATIENCE' WITH OURSELVES! LET'S NOT BE TOO HARD ON OURSELVES, DUE TO LIMITATIONS THAT WE ARE NOW EXPERIENCING WITHIN AND AROUND US.
MAY THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY BE WARM IN OUR HEARS, AND WITH HOPE AND PATIENCE BOTH PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY. BEST WISHES, CHW

SHALOM DEAR READERS:
THIS MONTH I AM BESIEGED WITH 'PAIN'! AND SO, THIS THE FOCUS FOR THE PRESENT.
P-PAIN CAN AND DOES TAKE US TO ANOTHER SPHERE.
A-WE ASK G.D/THE HEAVENS/THE ALMIGHTY TO GIVE US STRENGTH TO PERSEVERE.
I-WE ARE IN G.'S WORLD OF TRAVELING ON THE TRAIN, WHERE NATURE SHOWS US THAT ALL ANIMALS, ALL OF NATURE, ALL HUMANS ARE BOARDING ON THE TRAIN OF LIFE, AND OTHERS ARE GETTING OFF THE TRAIN, AS THEIR TIME ON PLANET EARTH IS UP.
N-NOW WE MUST GRAB ONTO HOPE! WE NEED ONE ANOTHER TO BOOST US, TO SUSTAIN US, WE NEED OUR PRAYERS TO UPLIFT US AND TO GIVE US HOPE! LET US REMEMBER, WE ARE STILL HERE, RIGHT NOW. DESPITE THE PAIN! DO WE YET HAVE LOVED ONES WHO CHERISH US, WHO NEED US, WHO LOVE US, SO WE MUST, must
NOT GIVE UP! WE NEED TO SOMEHOW FIND THE STRENGTH TO COPE AND TO CONTINUE ON OUR TRAIN OF LIFE!
P-PAIN TELLS US THAT MAN PLANS, BUT G. DISPOSES!
A- LET'S ASK THE DIVINE FOR STRENGTH TO FEEL HIS PRESENCE.
I- I AM , THEREFORE I FEEL, THEREFORE I TRY TO CONTINUE TO COPE.
N-WE HAVE THE NOW. WE MUST TRY NOT TO WORRY ABOUT TOMORROW, OR ABOUT THE PAST. TODAY ,WE HAVE THE NOW, TO LOVE, TO ENDURE. WE HAVE THE NOW TO ENJOY WHAT WE LOVE-READING, MOVIES, COMPANY, FRIENDS. LET'S TRY TO FIND WAYS TO ENDURE AND EVEN TO LAUGH ALONG THE WAY, IF ONLY A SMILE.
I WISH YOU ALL TO ENJOY YOUR TRAIN RIDE, AND SEND YOU MY GOOD WISHES ALWAYS!

FEEL THE FEAR, BUT.... DEC. 8, 2019
SHALOM DEAR READERS:
WOW, WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES, OR A MONTH, OR A YEAR IN OUR PRECIOUS LIVES.
OUR TOPIC THIS MONTH:
'FEEL THE FEAR, BUT DO IT ANYWAYS!'
YEARS AGO, I READ A BOOK BY SUSAN JEFFERS, 'FEEL THE FEAR, BUT DO IT ANYWAYS.' IT HAS CARRIED ME ALL THESE YEARS, AND THROUGH EVERY STRUGGLE THAT I MEET BOTH PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY AND EMOTIONALLY,
LIFE BRINGS ITS UPS AND DOWNS. AND THOSE OF US WHO ARE USING THIS BLOG, ARE MEETING WITH DOWNS, ALTHOUGH HOPEFULLY WITH SOME GOOD MOMENTS. YES, IT IS O'KAY TO FEEL AFRAID, VERY MUCH SO. BUT.....DO WE JUST SIT THERE/LIE THERE AND MOAN AND WAIL, (YES, SOMEWHAT). BUT THEN WE MUST PICK OURSELVES UP AND DO WHAT IS NECESSARY. LETT HEM GIVE US CHEMO, SHOTS, TREATMENTS, WITH THE ETERNAL HOPE THAT WE WILL COME THRU.
AS WE ALL KNOW, WE ARE ON THE TRAIN OF LIFE. PEOPLE ARE GETTING ON THE TRAIN AND GETTING OFF, WHEN THEIR TIME IS UP. BUT WE DON'T WANT TO GET OFF THE TRAIN NOW AND NOT IN THE NEAR FUTURE. SO ...... LET'S DO WHAT IS NEEDED TO DO. ACCEPT THE TREATMENTS, THE PAIN, THE INCONVENIENCE, AND DO WHAT WE MUST TO HELP OURSELVES.
'IF I AM NOT FOR MYSELF, WHO WILL BE?' A FAMOUS HEBREW SAYING, THOSE WHO HELP THEMSELVES IS AS IMPORTANT AS US HELPING OTHERS!
MY WISH FOR ALL OF US THIS WINTER MONTH OF DECEMBER IS THAT FIND WAYS TO SAY THANK YOU FOR WHAT GOOD WE DO HAVE, AND TO REPEAT OUR PRAYERS OF GRATITUDE OFTEN!
WITH MY BEST WISHES ALWAYS,

ALONG OUR TRAIN RIDE OF LIFE, OCT. 6-2019
SHALOM DEAR READERS:
AT THIS TIME OF YEAR, WE ARE REMINDED OF OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY WHO ARE ILL OR WHO HAVE DIED. THEY HAVE FINISHED THEIR RIDE ON THE TRAIN OF LIFE. HOW SIMPLE IT IS TO SAY THAT SENTENCE, BUT OH, HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO ACCEPT IT! EACH OF US HAS HIS BURDEN TO CARRY, HIS PAIN TO LIVE WITH, AND SOMEHOW TO CONTINUE TO LIVE AND LAUGH AND ENJOY SOMEWHAT!
WHAT A CHALLENGE LIFE IS! BUT WE HAVE TODAY, RIGHT NOW, TO GRAB THE MOMENTS WE HAVE TO SOMEHOW ENJOY, LAUGH, (AND EVEN CRY) AND BE AWARE AND THANKFUL FOR WHAT WE DO HAVE! A FRIEND'S COMPANY, A CHILD OR GRANDCHILDS LAUGH, A GOOD BOOK TO READ, A TIME FOR OURSELVES TO REST, TO JUST 'BE', AND SOMEHOW, YES, SOMEHOW TO BE GRATEFUL FOR WHAT WE HAVE TODAY, AS THIS MOMENT IN TIME.
WE ARE ON THE TRAIN OF LIFE. AT SOME TIME, EVERYONE HAS THEIR TURN TO GET OFF THE TRAIN OF LIFE. IT IS THE NATURE'S WAY FOR ALL FLOWERS, TREES, ANIMALS, AND YES OURSELVES, HUMAN BEINGS TO DIE.
BUT RIGHT NOW ON OCT. 6, 2019, WE ARE HERE. SO I WISH ALL OF US SOME PLEASURE, SOME HAPPY MOMENTS, SOME LAUGHTER AND SMILES. MAY WE HAVE MANY GOOD MOMENTS TO OVERCOME THE UNPLEASANT ONES WE HAVE TO ACCEPT. MAY THIS YEAR BE A GOOD ONE FOR ALL OF US. WHAT WE CAN DO IS TO FIND HAPPY ACTIVITIES TO KEEP US GOING.
G. BLESS!
SHANA TOVA-A GOOD YEAR!

ALONG THE TRAIN OF LIFE, SEPT. 2019
WELL, HERE WE ARE IN SEPT. 2019. HOW LUCKY WE ARE TO BE ALIVE, TO COMMENCE OUR STUDIES, OR CONTINUE IN THE WORK FORCE, OR TO JUST LIVE, BREATHE THE WORLD AROUND US.
NEW BEGINNINGS , WE ARE AWARE OF A SHOFAR(RAM'S HORN) BEING BLOWN DAILY, WE THINK OF MISTAKES WE HAVE MADE, OF REPENTANCE, OF WANTING TO LIVE AND CONTINUE ON , ON THIS PLANET EARTH. EACH OF US IS EXPERIENCING THE AGING PROCESS, THE HEALING PROCESS, THE DECLINING PROCESS-EACH BEING NORMAL PROCESSES TO GO THROUGH IN LIFE.
I SUGGEST THAT WE TAKE TIME TO PONDER JUST HOW FORTUNATE WE ARE-DO WE STILL HAVE FRIENDS AROUND US, FAMILY WHO LOVE US, A HOME TO LIVE IN, A COMMUNITY TO BE PART OF? GRATITUDE IS A TERM THAT I HANG ONTO, HOW MUCH I HAVE TO BE THANKFUL FOR, DESPITE THE NEGATIVE ELEMENTS THAT ARE PART OF WHAT WE MUST GO THROUGH BOTH PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY, AND MENTALLY.
CAN WE ELIMINATE ALL THE NEGATIVES? BUT CAN WE STRIVE TO ACCEPT WHAT WE MUST, TO THINK OF THE POSITIVE GOOD THINGS TO HANG ONTO. I FIND THAT BY WRITING A LIST OF ALL THE GOOD IN MY LIFE, POINT FORM, I SEE THAT DESPITE THE DIFFICULT ACHES, PAINS, AND WORRIES, THERE IS MUCH TO BE SO THANKFUL FOR.
I CHALLENGE MYSELF DAILY TO THINK POSITIVELY . IT IS SO EASY TO DWELL ONTHE NEGATIVE. AND TO PITY OURSELVES, AND WHAT WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH.
LET ELUL, THIS MONTH LEADING UP TO THE JEWISH NEW YEAR, ROSH HASHANA, EMBRACE US WITH THANKFULNESS AND HOPEFULNESS DAILY!
WITH MY BEST WISHES ALWAYS,
CHW
