Let Nothing Stand in your Way

 Not so long ago and old man in Russia started learning Hebrew.  That was illegal.

A man from the KGB approached the old man and asked, "Tell me, what do you think you are doing?"
The old man replied, "I am old.  I could die any time.  I want to learn Hebrew so I will understand what they are saying in heaven."
"And what makes you think you are going to heaven, old man? Perhaps you are going to hell."
The old man gazed at the KGB and said, "In that case, I already know Russian."  -Rabbi Jacob Radinsky
 
We work for heaven today.  What we do impacts our present and informs our future. For this reason, nothing is meaningless.  Nothing.

“Between 1305 and the early 1800’s. the House of Taxis ran a form of pony express service all over Europe….   Its couriers clad in blue and silver uniforms, crisscrossed the continent carrying messages between princes and generals, merchants and money lenders.” –Alvin Toffler, The Third Wave We may think we are the first generation consumed by rapid communication but we are not.   Throughout our history it has been a priority. Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
