Getting out of the way
Sometimes you see that things have been taken out of your hands and are following a supernatural order. At this point, just do your best at what you have to do --and stay out of G-d’s way.

A Faraway Land
On the line to be received by the Rebbe was a young man, obviously well to do, but wearing a morose and despondent expression.
The young man entered the Rebbe’s room, and when he emerged, his expression had changed. His face beamed forth energy and vitalityhttp://www.chabad.org/library/article.asp?AID=282588

wanton love
One who is full of himself fills all the space around him. There is no room left for anyone else. Therefore, he despises another person by virtue of the space that other person consumes. He may give reasons for his disdain, but the reasons are secondary.
This is called wanton hatred. It is the reason given for our exile. It is the core of all evil. It is balanced and cured by wanton acts of love and kindness.

Beggars at a wedding (great story)
The poverty of Rabbi DovBer, the Maggid of Mezeritch, was legendary. Meals, when they were, were a crust of bread; the "furniture" in his hovel was an assortment of wooden planks and stumps. Once he was asked by his disciples: "Rebbe, why is it that you must endure such abject conditions, while others, much less deserving than yourself, enjoy the blessings of G-d’s world?" Rabbi DovBer replied with a story:http://www.chabad.org/library/article.asp?AID=53104

joke of the day
World War III
Bush and Powell were sitting in a bar. A guy walked in and asked the barman, "Isn't that Bush and Powell?"
The barman said, "Yep, that's them."
So the guy walked over and said, "Hello. What are you guys doing?"
Bush said, "We're planning World War III."
The guy asked, "Really? What's going to happen?"
Bush said, "Well, we're going to kill 10 million Afghans and one bicycle repairman."
The guy exclaimed, "Why are you gonna kill a bicycle repairman?!"
Bush turned to Powell and said, "See, I told you no one would worry about the 10 million Afghans!"

visiting jails
shluchim recieving the rebbes shlichus!
Meshaleichus, or shlichus?
If a bochur feels he was dumped or was misplaced, is it wrong for him not to go? the two sides would be like this.1. the rebbe sends everyone no matter how it looks, although we manage to convince ourselves that we prearranged it, nothing would happen without the rebbes approval, which the emtzoie is oholei torah.2 the bochur feels that he is poshot not cut out to go to that place, doesent feel he will do well there, and cannot deal with the group going there, is he still obligated to go?
