The purpose of this blog is to achieve new vistas at the Shabbat table. Please print and share.
The count-up continues, one more week....
That's a twist on the famous Yiddish proverb:
Der Mensch Trakht un Got Lakht - A person plans, and God laughs.
1st question for your table: Did you ever experience this? Where your best laid plans went awry?
Or how about this - I was trying to order a book for one of my children, and it kept failing.
Two weeks ago I ordered the book. It's a used textbook, for seven bucks (including shipping) as opposed to $85 new.
She keeps asking me, "Do you know when my book is going to arrive?"
"Well, I did get an email 10 days ago that it had been shipped, I'm sure it will arrive any day now."
Yesterday I get an email that the seller made an error - they don't actually have the book. And they are sorry.
Hmm.
So I try to order another copy from a different seller. No matter how many times I try, it won't accept any of my credit cards.
2nd question for your table - Why do we keep trying? And at what point should you give up?
3rd question for your table: If and when you do give up, do you feel disappointed, or do you say, "It wasn't meant to be" ???
Shabbat Shalom

You really make it seem really easy together with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually one thing that I think I might by no means understand. It seems too complicated and very vast for me. I’m looking ahead to your next put up, I will attempt to get the dangle of it!friv game 2020 || kizi || abcya4
