Hashem has a plan

Passover is supposed to be a time for celebration and thanksgiving, a time for family and for children, but in Brooklyn, there is little joy for Rachel Matyas.
The Orthodox Jewish matriarch still struggles with the horrible memories of a fire three years ago that killed her two youngest boys and a grandson.
The so-called Passover Fire that swept through her apartment on April 25, 2005, also injured 10 others and left her family broken in ways that can never be fixed.
"It's very hard to talk about it," Matyas, 64, told the Daily News. "The wound is still open. It's such a hard time of year because I just keep crying all the time."

...."The only way to survive is by having faith in whatever Hashem [God] does," she said. "Hashem has a plan. We don't understand, but we believe. That gives us the strength to go forward."
