The Button
There is a lady who lives in Eretz Yisroel who was wearing her blouse. The blouse that she was wearing could be worn in one of two ways, either with the top closed or with it opened a little bit. Either way, it wasn't terribly not tznius, but the standard of the school and her family was to have the top button closed. She was struggling with it. She wasn't struggling with yiddishkeit in any way, but just in this areas; she wanted to wear the button open. She spoke it over with her mother, and her mother left it up to her. She chose to close the button. Later that day, her mother sees her and sees that she is really exhausted from the spiritual struggle. With tears in her eyes, her mother tells her, you know what? Who knows if your closing of your button stopped another pigua from happening in Eretz Yisroel. Who knows!
B"H there was less terror today than yesterday. Who knows what one closing of a button can do. What is your 'button'? What is that one small thing that for whatever reason it is, is a struggle for you. Because who knows if your 'button' can prevent one more terrorist attack from ruining the lives of our brothers and sisters.
Hopefully IY"H, we can garner up the strength and do whatever we need to do to close our one 'button'. Have a great day and rest of your week.
Happiness
Our Happiness is with Other’s
Suddenly the speaker stopped and started giving each one a balloon. Each one was asked to write his/her name on it using a marker pen. Then all the balloons were collected and put in another room.
Now these delegates were left in that room and asked to find the balloon which had their name written, within 5 minutes. Everyone was frantically searching for their name, colliding with each other, pushing around others and there was utter chaos.
At the end of 5 minutes no one could find their own balloon.
Now each one was asked to randomly collect a balloon and give it to the person whose name was written on it.
Within minutes everyone had their own balloon.
The speaker began— Exactly this is happening in our lives. Everyone is frantically looking for happiness all around, not knowing where it is.
Our happiness lies in the happiness of other people. Give them their happiness, you will get your own happiness.
