Prague

Hey! So today is Friday which means its time for a dvar torah and then some pictures from Prague..


This Weeks parsha is Ki Teitzei- "When you go out". We are currently in the month of ELUL- acronym for ani ldodi vdodi li which means-  Mine is the beloved and my beloved is for me. The first two words of the parsha are ki teitzei means when you go out and first two letters- ani ldodi- i am for my beloved. This relates about going out of yourself and being for the other,  being for Gd and working on your avoda, and being ofr another person. 

What is the key to happiness? The people who are looking for happiness all hte time are the people who are furthest way from happiness- they are so focused on finding that one thing they are losing sight of everything else that is around them. The key is to GO OUT WITH JOY. It is a difficult thing to do, but wherever youre going or what you are doing, you can have a purpose doing it.  What can you do and be helpful over here, or how can you change someone's day? That is a way of looking at what you can give and do to help get out of yourself. If we do this successfully, we can eventually merit to bring moshiach, in our days iyH!! 

Have a beautiful Shabbos!!!

Here are pictures from yesterday and today. A big thank you to Tori and Katie for hosting me all week!!! Today we went around the Jewish quarter and went inside a bunch of the shuls. They were stunning inside filled with stained glass and designs and HUGE. I couldnt take any photos inside, but there are a few from the outside.
