Simon Cynamon
hi guys
simon cynamon reporting
i was just going through the yearbook looking for ted zwibel's picture -( you know, to refresh the memory ) and just for your information, it's at the end....so as i was scrolling down the pages of your pictures i was once again filled with love,the same love i felt for all of you then,filled with love again.
looking at our faces i see our spirit of joy,expectation,fearlessness....
here we are, at the ages of our parents then, who had just come out of the slaughter, and here we are, on the edge of the next slaughter.....hatred of us swirling arounds us with increasing intensity,increasing barbarity
these demons want to kill my mother
all our mothers
no exceptions !!!
i've been in israel since 1983
i became observant in 1979
and as we see that "dor ba, ve dor olech" generation follows generation...
bottom line.....we didn't bring ourselves into the world and for most of us, we don't take ourselves out of it
in tehillim-psalms of david- it says that the safety and security of a city -ultimately- rests with G-d.!
brothers and sisters, and i mean it, we are all after, brothers and sisters and
Hashem, G-d Almighty, The Creator, and as He likes to call Himself, The G-d of Israel
is our Father and He says over and over again- something i'm sure all of us feel--He is, each and every one of us's,personal G-d
yes it's true...that which each one of us has felt at some point,
that we have an exalted destiny
it's true
G-d has endowed each and every one of us with their particular talent, power and strenght
and the purpose of it all to break finally once and for all this cycle of darkness and evil...
Adam ate of the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge, The Knowledge Good and Evil
he was supposed to eat first of the Tree of Life and then of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.
once he'd been "innoculated"and made immune by Life to Evil.
our obligations as Jews-that which Kaballah amd Torah tells us-is tha G-d Himself requires of us to rectify that primordial mistake...that is the whole point of our religion,Judaism..and every aspect of it is meant to
draw down to us the shefa the bounty the light the G-dly energy to vanquish Darkness.
by facing G-d our Maker our Father,turning to Him before He requires of us our final reckoning.
that and that alone,turning to Him, will break this cycle of hatred and brutality that has been washing over us again and again
the further from G-d the greater the hatred
,no place is immune
so the solution is to turn to G-d- and this is the last test....the last test is the test of who remains faithfull to Hashem to G-d our Father
i declare my love for you all once again
that and that alone has prompted these words
that and that alone is what accompanied our soldiers in their tremendous courage and power as they threw
themselves at the enemy...they died willingly....they love their parents
you've had children,you've had the great privilege of bringing more and more jewish souls into the world
you've known love of children,see their bravery
their selflesness,their light
Hashem sees us and looks at us with the greatest of love
i hope wish and pray for all our good
i will forever cherish you
