the widow Recently I was just thinking that we don't have any "material"(lessons, writings,etc..) on widows, As I became, recently, one, I was amazing in hearing you, Chana, filling my emptiness with meaning through this sensitivy talking..
Thanks. I love you, since I heard your lecture on Prayer ( in Messages Tania)- which made me cry at prayer. Reply

Keep up the good work אני אוהב מה את אומרת

I find the real challenge in doing mitzvos when your schedual is empty, and your service is chas vShalom cold.

Peace Peace Peace and keep adding warmth. Reply

Only a little oil left What you told us, was beautiful and true!
I sometimes feel, without my husband, who died, my life is meaningless.
But to hear that we should do acts of kindness and so on, be busy with it all the day,
I find very helpful. Thank you! Reply
