"Where does it say that you have a contract with G-d to have an easy life?"
the Lubavitcher Rebbe
"Failure is not the enemy of success; it is its prerequisite."

A life!!!
Those of you who regularly listen to Rabbi Zecharia Wallerstein know his opinions about Facebook and the like. After receiving the cartoon below in an email, I decided to post it, along with a fabulous story told by the rabbi.
Didn't get to see video yet; but needed to respond that I agree wholeheartedly with the Rabbi. Cannot understand how adults, especially, join Facebook, Twitter & all the other nonsense. It's bad enough that the youth have become addicted to all this. The only good about the whole computer/technology is the information one can get to learn (a modern version of encyclopedia) or more like the Tree of Knowledge, good and evil and guess what most people will turn to - evil; other than that, it is not only dangerous, specifically for the youth who cannot read, write or spell correctly. No correct grammar, just a disaster in so many ways. Blame is on the parents who have allowed it all to get out of hand. We now have the most dumbdowned generation, sorry to say.
