TREES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

In Parshas Shoftim, the Torah states: "For the man is like a tree of the field"- (Deut. 20:19) This is one source for the comparison between the man and the tree. Proper care of a tree is important in order for it to continue to produce fruit. Compare this care to that of a man whose fruits are his children, his offspring. Three things are needed for man to give forth the fruit for which he was created: the Mitzvot. 1. The ground is needed for man to live upon, which produces all of man's needs. 2. Man himself, who must take from the ground material to make a mitzvah. 3. Water, the word of G-d. Torah is compared to water. We combine the aspect of the tree, which is giving its best, its fruit, to the aspect of man giving his best, the mitzvah of the recognition of G-d's goodness in our Land.

WISDOM: "FROM THE MOUTH OF BABES"

Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge. The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child. The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.
Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there. When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said, “Nothing, I just helped him cry.”
When there is nothing left that is when you find out that love is all you need.

Quotes

"Where there is light, there is no darkness!"
(UNKNOWN AUTHOR)

Only a Little Light
By Berel Wein
One of the bywords of Jewish tradition is that 'a little light can overcome a great deal of darkness'. The rabbis taught us that the power of good is many times greater than the power of evil.
This power of good is expressed through the little light that exists which has the ability to dispel a great deal of darkness. This little light is not meant for us alone. It is to be made public, lit for all to see and observe.

7 WONDERS OF THE WORLD, PART II

While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one student, a quiet girl, hadn’t turned in her paper yet. So she asked the girl if she was having trouble with her list. The quiet girl replied, “Yes, a little. I couldn’t quite make up my mind because there were so many.”

The teacher said, “Well, tell us what you have and maybe we can help.”

The girl hesitated, then read, “I think the Seven Wonders of the World are:

to touch
to taste
to see
to hear

she hesitated a little and then continued,
