The Jewish Holiday of Love

B"H

Once a day of joy and matchmaking in ancient Israel, Tu B’Av is still considered an et ratzon — an auspicious time for finding one’s match.

To those still searching: don’t lose hope. Keep your heart open. Hashem is always working behind the scenes to bring souls together.

Israel, May the Truth be With You

B"H

Antisemitism isn’t new — it evolves, just like Rabbi Sacks called it: a “mutating virus.”

But through it all, we hold onto the truth of the Torah. We may not be perfect, but we know the truth is on our side.

Praying for the safe return of our hostages, and for the day when Hashem’s kindness and presence will be clear to all.

Having Holy Patience

B"H

We ache for the Beit Hamikdash. We long for the Geulah.

But in the wait, there’s a call for patience, faith, and quiet action.

It’s not just about crying for what’s missing. It’s about showing up every day—with hope, with trust, and with the belief that every small deed brings us closer.

Jews, Don't Ever Give Up!

B"H Tisha B’Av marks the destruction of the Temple, yet our Sages teach that on this very day, the Messiah is born.

We must raise our children with the values and vision to be worthy of his arrival.

We must prepare ourselves, through tefillah, teshuvah, and even immersing in the mikveh—to emerge with renewed hope and clarity.

May we see mashiach soon, Amen!

Prayer is Not What You Think it is

B"H

As Tisha B’Av approaches, we’re reminded that prayer isn’t just about words, it’s about connection.

We await the Third Beis Hamikdash, where prayer will transcend boundaries and be open to every soul.

May this Tisha B’Av deepen our tefillah and our longing for something greater.

The Spiritual Sound of Music

B"H

Even though we’ve never seen the Bais Hamikdash with our own eyes…

We still mourn its loss. We still long for its return.

The soul still remembers. The heart still yearns.

May we merit to see it rebuilt soon.

We Cannot Fully Embrace the Moment

B"H

Can we ever fully live in the present?

In many spiritual paths, embracing the present moment is the ultimate goal. But in Judaism, there’s a deeper tension, we’re called to live fully now, while never forgetting the brokenness of the world.

At a Jewish wedding, even in our happiest moment, we break a glass a reminder that Jerusalem is still in ruins. This doesn’t diminish the joy.

It elevates it.

Because true joy in Judaism is incomplete and that’s what makes it holy. It’s a joy that propels us to action, to healing, to rebuilding.

Stop Being so Judgemental!

B"H

How can we become less judgmental?

We reflect on the destruction of the Beis Hamikdash and how sinas chinam, baseless hatred—played a role.

The solution? Shift your focus. 🔹 Look for the good in others 🔹 Judge favorably 🔹 Remember we’re all created b’tzelem Elokim

The Only Home for Jews

B"H

Every Jewish journey leads to one destination: Eretz Yisrael and the rebuilding of the Beis Hamikdash.

Wherever we are in the world, we’re not at the end. We’re still on the road.

Vayisu. Vayachanu. Vayisu again. We travel, we settle, we travel again—until we arrive.

This is our journey.

This is our hope.

This is our destiny.

Here is How to Handle Hatred

B"H

Love your neighbor as yourself” isn’t always easy. The Torah teaches us that to truly love others, we first have to deal with the feelings of anger or resentment we’re holding inside.

Instead of bottling it up, we’re taught to communicate openly and constructively — to address the behavior without attacking the person.

This kind of honest conversation can open the door to understanding, healing, and even deeper connection. ❤

➡ Have you ever experienced a relationship grow stronger after a hard but honest conversation?
