read this men

 Most girls have no real hobbies. And she really doesn’t want you to notice. If you pay attention, you’ll see the truth: Her “hobbies” are usually: 

1. Scrolling on TikTok / Instagram 2. Watching Netflix or reality TV 3. Going out for drinks with friends 4. Taking selfies 5. Shopping 6. Complaining about her life 

Very few women have actual passions or skills they actively work on like playing an instrument, reading books, learning a language, building something, or mastering a craft. 

She knows this makes her look boring and low-value, so she’ll try to hide it. She might say things like: 1. “I love traveling!” 2. “I’m really into fitness!” 3. “I’m a foodie!”  

Don’t fall for the fake hobbies. 

Observe what she actually spends her time on when no one is watching. The girls with real hobbies and purpose are rare and usually much higher quality. Most girls are just… existing.

Rabbi Aryeh Leib Rubin (1850–1936)

 Rabbi Aryeh Leib Rubin (1850–1936) served as Rabbi of Vilkomir, and was a distinguished disciple of Rabbi David Bonimovitz, Rabbi of Vidzh. After his teacher’s passing in 1887, he succeeded him in the Vidzh rabbinate, and later was appointed Rabbi of Vilkomir. (His renowned son-in-law, Rabbi Yosef Shlomo Kahaneman – later the famed Rabbi of Ponevezh and founder of the Ponevezh Yeshiva – succeeded him in Vidzh.)

Rabbi Rubin founded the Vilkomir Yeshiva and was among the leading Lithuanian rabbis active in the public and communal affairs of Orthodox Jewry in Lithuania before the Holocaust. His letters are exceedingly rare – and a signed semikhah is rarer still.

The ordination was conferred upon Rabbi Yitzchak Meir Yaakobovitz (1902–1956), a student of the “Beit HaTalmud Etz Chaim” Yeshiva in Częstochowa and of the Ostrovtza Rebbe, Rabbi Meir Yechiel HaLevi Halstock.

In 1922, he fled to Germany to avoid conscription into the Polish army and studied at Rabbi Moshe Schneider’s Yeshiva in Frankfurt. In 1925, while still a young man, he began delivering lectures at Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Breuer’s yeshiva.

In 1935, he immigrated to the Land of Israel on behalf of Rabbi Yosef Breuer, head of the Kehillat Adas Yeshurun Yeshiva in Frankfurt. In Jerusalem, he served as Rabbi of the “Horev” synagogue and congregation of German Jews and was among the founders of Yeshivat Kol Torah.

His son, Rabbi Yitzchak Yechiel Yaakobovitz, served as Chief Rabbi of Herzliya, and his son-in-law was Rabbi Avraham Erlanger, one of the leading rabbis of Kol Torah Yeshiva.

Symbolism of the offering by the Rebbe

 

Friday: The Inner Sacrificial Altar Sixth Reading: Leviticus 8:22–29 Translated and Adapted by Moshe Wisnefsky As was the case with most sacrifices, parts of the sacrifices of the installation rituals were burned on the Outer Altar. The Inner Sacrificial Altar וַיִּקַּח מֹשֶׁה אֹתָם מֵעַל כַּפֵּיהֶם וַיַּקְטֵר הַמִּזְבֵּחָה וגו': (ויקרא ח:כח) Moses took [specific parts of the slaughtered sacrifices] from the hands [of Aaron and his sons] and burned them up on the Altar. Leviticus 8:28 The procedures for the sacrifices all allude to inner, psychological processes that we must undergo in order to draw close to G‑d. (As mentioned above, the Hebrew word for “sacrifice” [korban] means “drawing close.”) Slaughtering the animal alludes to how we slaughter – i.e., renounce – our animalistic orientation toward life. Sprinkling the blood on the Altar alludes to how we then re-orient our enthusiasm (signified by our warm blood) toward G‑dliness. Placing the fat of the slaughtered animal on the Altar alludes to how we re-orient our sense of delight (signified by fat, which results from indulging in eating foods that trigger feelings of delight in our brain) toward G‑dliness. Burning the animal by fire on the Altar alludes to the consumption of our animal nature by Divinity, meaning that our formerly animalistic drives become drives for goodness, as we transform the world into G‑d’s home.1 FOOTNOTES 1. Reshimot 108.

Maybe be the camel

After being rescued from a petting zoo, a special camel had trouble fitting in with the other animals on the rescue farm. It wanted nothing more than to be friends with all the horses and alpacas, but they had never seen a camel before. After a while, they realized that it was just a funny version of them, so they began to warm up to it, and now it has become part of the herd

cooler heads

Some rabbis are so out of touch with the concerns of people that it is appalling. I once attended a talk given to a Carlebach minyan where a visiting rabbi told a room of music lovers that listening to music has been forbidden since the destruction of the Temple, except for zmiros at Shabbos tables and some music at weddings. Rabbi Shlomo Carelbach was a talented songwriter and performer who built an entire kiruv track based largely on music. People who follow his derech connect to Judaism largely through music. I do not know what this rabbi was trying to accomplish with his presentation, but he certainly risked pushing people away from Torah observance. I know this rabbi to be a gentleman, but he was trained to impose Judaism like a straight jacket. Incredibly, he is Modern Orthodox and is associated with Yeshiva University, but many rabbis in the Modern Orthodox world have taken on sensibilities of other groups even though they are paid by Modern Orthodox people. 

But cooler heads can prevail. One BT who was an aficionado of opera was most upset to hear that halacha prohibited him from attending operas because he'd hear women singing. The rabbi who gave him this news eventually took him to a prominent posek  who told him if I recall correctly that attending operas would be permitted to him if his interest was in the entire spectacle, not just the women singing. After the young man left the room, the posek took the rabbi aside and chastised him, saying that he should know better than to pass on such restrictions without checking for a leniency.
