Dear Chana, you spoke about Soviet Russia, and did not specify it at all. You create a bad image for Russia and Russians in general. Somehow this is not fair in my opinion. Reply

Mrs Weissberg's Speech I am in awe of Mrs. Weissberg. Not only is she a beautiful woman to look at, she has so much substance and spirituality, something I find so rare in human beings in general. She has the talent to make anybody more hopeful about life--inspite of all the trials and tribulations we all have to endure. Hashem has blessed her personally and chose her to infuse strength in others. I am so happy that I was able to listen to her speech. Reply

Finding Meaning in Our Everyday Lives Dear Chana Weisberg,
Thank you so much for this wonderful inspirational talk. I found myself crying with the story of the priest. Because like him I found out about my ancestry at 62 yrs of age. Today I am 64. I realized that all my life my soul was looking forward to this revelation. And it was Hashem, Himself, blessed be He, who brought me to it. Finding out that I am a Jewess. I am not turning back no matter if the whole world rejects me. I felt an outcast all my life. Today, as the prophesy of a Jewish man gave me before I came to Arizona, that I would find out who I was soon. That was 4 years ago. The only reason why I cry is because I am alone. My friends and families are not close to me. But Hashem is with me. As you mentioned, that wherever we are it is only with a purpose. Here in this desert, isolated from those I love, Hashem is with me and His Will is my will. Blessed be he. Thank you for all your teachings. Reply
