Baruch Hashem, if one really sits down and looks into the
essence of every action and/or event that occurs in his/her life can see Hashem
sending us messages and links to help us go through life as well.
On the Subway we can all reach a level of such spirituality
its actually insane. When one rides the subway, especially in New York later in
the night, they can almost hear Hashem sending them a message about life and
just to get back up from their low state of motivation.
What usually happens? Train delays, people pushing you by
accident, trying to catch the train, people singing really bad songs no one
would like to listen to at the moment, having a person sit next to you eating
something really smelly, getting throw up on the bottom of your shoe and on and
on. The Subway is one heck of a jungle.
But let’s get serious. What is Hashem trying to tell us?
We all know the train we hop on goes in a single direction:
forward. We also know the train always has stations it must stop at and a final
destination. So it is so simple to connect a subway ride to one’s life. Usually
during rush hour the train must stop on the way to another station. The people
on board become frustrated and you just want to get to where you are going. But
wait. Why don’t we take this quick 30 second break and ponder about life? How?
Life is exactly like that. Sometimes we reach rock bottom,
Be’ezrat Hashem not all the time, and we think we are only in reverse mode,
doing less things to make Hashem happy with our service to Him and doing more
things that if people will find out they might think I am crazy. At these moments
what does the train do? Simply stop and just wait until it picks itself back
up. The Jew living in such a society like ours is the same thing. We just need
to rest, think where we are going and know that because of this backlash in my
Mitzvot and life of Torah this is what will give me that extra boost to get
back on track and continue forward.
After all, there is
no such thing as going reverse.
So why ruin the
future with the events of the past? You control your future.
Judaism=Think.
With that in mind,
Pesach is in 10 days.
