HOME & FAMILY Taking a Breather"How can it be that a mother needs a vacation from her family? Aren't they the essence of her purpose in this world - "Ein Isha Ela Lebanim" etc.?" asked one of Adina B.'s neighbors, upon hearing that she was organizing a keytanat imahot — a recreational two-night-three day break for mothers.
Just Imagine Some people are blessed with a vivid imagination, others are more factual. When pupils at school are given a choice of subjects about which to write, some children will always choose a subject about which they can fantasize. They let their imagination run wild and they can weave a spellbinding story. As long as the child learns what is real and what is fantasy, imagination is a wonderful gift.by Adina Hershberg For several years, I attended a Torah class in Har Nof, Jerusalem. One time, the rebbetzin was talking about seeing Hashem's hand in one's daily life; she was not talking about the marvelous millions of miracles that occur daily, such as the rising of the sun, the blossoming of the trees and the intricate human body that is capable of performing so many diverse tasks. She was talking about how some events recently occurred to her, and how she clearly saw Hashem's hand.
ASK THE SHADCHAN
Question:
". . . I'm the mother of a lovely daughter finishing
Seminary. I have many married children, so shidduchim
is not a foreign subject to me, but she is older than all my
other daughters were when they married, and girls in her
class are becoming engaged at a breathtaking rate, leaving
her feeling more than a little insecure.
Seeing is Believing
Synopsis: Reuven and Surah Huma met, married, and had
their children in New York. When Binyaminm, born blind, was
nine years old, and Mazel (now Shira Levy's daughter-in-law),
one year older, the family made aliya. Most of their family
on both sides live here in Israel, so it was natural for them
to make aliya. Reuven and Surah both speak Hebrew and English
in their home so there was no problem for the children to
learn the language once they moved here to Israel.
Your Medical Questions Answered! Intravenous lines are common, but there is a misconception about them. Often they are used to give fluids to patients that in truth could drink just as easily and get the same benefit. The lines cannot be used to feed someone. I do not believe that the use of intravenous fluids before a fast will help.
